All tubulars have been re-introduced.
A cerendipitous find: while changing a second large 10K resistor, which became 13K, same as the 1st one, from large divider, I habitually checked it (I ordered a few 5W 10K ones) and found it to be 13K. Surprised, I looked at the marking, and it was indeed 13K. The rest is 10K. So, I took the original 13K one, that grew to 18K, and which I parallelled with another one to make it 13K, yanked it out and replaced it with the 13K one. I did not have any 13K. Or so I tbought.
Lucky day!

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
