HOKE,

Your on your toes!

FYI colors do fade and there are also house marked resistors as well as values chosen by the manufacturer because the colors showed better under mercury vapor mill lighting...
Even values that are "tweaked" during production...

Re-purposing old dog bones by using them at their "new" value is a bad idea too. The old resistor can be noisy, drift with current flow and heating. Stuff that is hardly worth the time to evaluate for 12 cent resistor.

Thanks!

Chas
