Yes, the 3pt checkering on the 99R/99RS's that had been discontinued over a year before Jaaack's 99EG had more lines per inch.
The 2pt checkering on the 99R/99RS's (or 99T's, or 99G's) made at the same time as Jaaack's 99EG had a very similar number of lines per inch. I would expect the fancy checkering to give more lines per inch like the 99K continued to have, otherwise they'd probably have gone with standard checkering for the time.
Jaaack, I'm about to send in for a letter. Let me confirm with them that the ledgers stop that early, Callahan had told us the last ledger went higher.
