Can someone identify this tartan for me, please?

Can anyone tell me what this tartan is, please? I have tried various online searches to no avail.
If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

OK, Tartan trivia question time.
If you reverse the red and yellow overchecks of Farquharson what do you get?
Put the Red within the Green band and the Yellow within the Blue bands alternating with and without the two black lines?
Anyone want to put forth an answer?
A hint - Start with Black Watch.

Hmmm , starting with Black Watch is a cruel teaser , but a good teaser . One might start looking at the countless number of different Campbell tartans based on that information ... or .... maybe not .
Like figheadair , I know the answer but let's see what pops up .

OK,
I'm intentionally answering, without referencing anything, specifically to test my metacognition:
Loudoun's Highlanders 
Domehead
Post Script:
I am incorrect. I now know what it is, which is what I should have gone with in the first place. Over thought it.

MacLeod of Harris is very much as you describe, but doesn't have the alternating black lines like Black Watch.

I think you are on the money Tobus, as Steve said " and without the two black lines"
