This paper gives a computation of the groups \(\text{Ext}^{1,2n}_{Ell*Ell} (Ell_*, Ell_*)\) which form the \(1\)-line of the \(E_2\) term of the Adams spectral sequence based on the elliptic homology theory \(Ell_*(\enskip)\). These groups have previously been considered by \textit{F. Clarke} and \textit{K. Johnson} [Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 176, 131-143 (1992; Zbl 0780.55011)], the author [New York J. Math. 1, 39-74 (1994; Zbl 0810.55007)], and \textit{G. Laures} [MIT PhD Thesis, 1996; Topology 38, No.~2, 387-425 (1999; Zbl 0924.55004)]. The present paper adopts a new approach to the computation, using the stable operations for \(Ell_*(\enskip)\) that the author previously constructed using the Hecke and Aitkens operations on modular forms, and also considers the case \(n < 0\) which had previously been neglected. The result is that these groups are \(0\) for \(n \leq 0\), and for \(n\) positive are \({\mathbb Z} [1/6]/m(n)\) where \(m(n)\) is the denominator of \(B_n/n\), \(B_n\) being the \(n\)-th Bernoulli number.
