Gyro-Lattice 2- Threes (Posted on 2008-05-23)

Please reflect upon "Gyro-Lattice 1 - Arrows" at puzzle 6061.

The rotations available are:
- [V] vertical [red]
- [H] horizontal [magenta]
- [R] right-down diagonal [green]
- [L] left-down diagonal [salmon]

A 3 x 3 section of the LED lattice is activated. 9 different letters have been
entered so that 3 words are read horizontally, and 3 vertically down.

Each letter is scrambled with just two programmed operations,
being V: ± 1 and H: ×/÷ 2.

Only values A=1... Z=26 are available; operations generating fractions or need for wraparound are void. Also one operation with V is paired with one of H. eg:

   T(20) → H÷ plus V+ → K(11)
   M(13) → V+ plus H÷ → G(7)

Unscramble this lattice:
  
    6  10   9      F J I
    8  10  11      H J K
    3  26  11      C Z K

Note: Any initial number may have up to 8 legitimate outputs

Reminder! Three words across and three down, and all letters unique.

(In reply to Dereliction of Duty by brianjn)

Mue is currently an obsolete word that can be found in some unabridged dictionaries, such as the 1913 US Webster's Unabridged and (1996) Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionaries.

Orf can be found in the North American Edition of the Encarta World Dictionary. In addition, it is also a variant spelling of orfe, another word, found in some unabridged dictionaries (such as the 1913 US Webster's Unabridged Dictionary), for the id, a bright-colored fresh-water cyrinoid fish.

There is also a third solution using the common words ale and but, if permitted to accept url as a word, the allowance of including the cyrillic letter tse, the chiefly scottish word ane, and the plural of the word 'or' used as a noun, i.e., ors:
BUT ORS ALE
