Doug:

Many thanks.

I could for sure live with 360 @ f/5.6...especially with both units  
using APO glass.

The treeware "Leica. The Program" booklet I have dated Aug 2000 says  
that the 2x APO will work with the 70-180 APO and make it effectively  
a 140-360 f/5.6 APO, and it also says the 1.4x APO will not work with  
this lens.
