Frankly, our group never used any of the other letters followed by "HJ".
Right or wrong, we prefixed "UHJ" with the number of channels, so we
talked about "2-channel UHJ", "2.5-channel UHJ", and so on. If we were
dealing with 4-channel UHJ we either called it that or "with-height UHJ"
which by definition infers all four channels. But yes, if we just said
"UHJ", that would infer 2-channel.

Regarding UHJ channels:
I should have said, that
in my (limited) experience 'UHJ' means
either
-all the HJ's (the top four rows in the Wikipedia table)
or
- what is/was known as BHJ (i.e. two channel).
Others may have different experiences ... and almost certainly based on a
bigger sample.
Anyway, a typical case of the generic term coming to mean the commonest
specific example ....
So: UHJ has no Z (if UHJ is BHJ)
or: UHJ can have Z (where PHJ is one of the HJs that comprise UHJ).
Another term for all the HJs is_IIRC_ 'C-format'.
As I said an alphabet soup ...
