I left the rotation off by a few degrees to make it easier to see (now corrected and coloured red). See the updated image.

If by different you mean between the Zodiac sample section and the Ross sample ... I agree I can see the differences in those as well.

its a bit pointless posting it up like that.. when you can fully post up the letter someone like traveller will examine it with an open mind..
It is a great find. well done. morf will be happy.
cheers

I'm trying to recall where HAM radio came up relating to Zodiac, wasn't it involving Rick Marshall?

He has a whole sample. It's a salutation written to another classmate, a good amount of writing. All you need to see if the letter Z used by Ross, is a match to that little Z on the bottom of the Bates letters-that little symbol looking Z, or the think that looks like a 2, or some have said may be an MLZ.....It is a Z and is a match to Ross's Z. That being said, the whole sample laid out would be good,and will be coming soon. I don't blame Ham for not posting it yet-it could be the find of the century if it's what solves this case. I had a chat with him and I believe that Ham didn't forge the writing and it's legit. It has to go thru proper channels and LE needs to examine the book for prints, the writing,etc and that is underway! In the meantime, DNA from a possible relatives is a possibility too. Some things are definitely underway.

Based on some of the symbols I think people have theorized for years that Zodiac was a ham radio operator

Ham Friend wrote:Traveller is right. They were flipped and rotated. Try and keep in mind, z's writing here is printed and in marker where as Ross' is done in pen and written in cursive. The passage is only ten words long not including Ross and the owners name. It's not like I had a library of Sullivan handwriting to pull these from. Just ten words. All things considered, the similarities are fairly staggering, IMO.
It's going to be the letter Z by Ross that carries the most weigh it matches the Bates letter Z symbol at the bottom-the nay-sayers, doubters, and critics can say what they want, but if it's legit, it's a match short and simple. How many more 'coincidences' with Ross must there be before it's no longer all a coincidence?
