That would be correct for a 4 band resistor....red red black silver would be
2   2   0  and silver would move the decimal point over 2 spaces.
Or is this actually called a 5 band resistor, the 5th band being the
tolerance? 1 or 2% at the most for these precision resistors.

I said 22 ohms -----but Sony says 2.2 ohms  they made up their own color
