marked bands of red,yellow,yellow,gold, silver.


the third yellow band implies

Read your post. red, yellow,yellow,gold, silver. What third yellow band?
If you're talking about the gold, that'd be the multiplier on a 5-band
resistor, or 10E-1. Silver is tolerance.


I read it as 24.4 at 10% tolerance, so 21.96-26.84.

alright correction , putting in an apostrophe or two
for
the third yellow band
read
the third, yellow band,

it still does not explain the tolerance illogicality
Why and how would anyone stock a 3/5 band range of resistors which are only
10 percent tolerance?
