Interesting.  I never noticed the spacing before.  But I have always avoided 
precision resistors whenever possible too...

The larger blank band separates the value from the accuracy band starts. As to 
what those colors actually are, well, I really couldn't tell.

  Actually Ken got it right.
  My DVM was reading .802k and I had a brain fart thinking it was 802k and 
there was no way I could make 802K match the colors.  
  Not sure why it cannot display 802 instead.  Fluke.  I even manually set the 
range and it just says over limit on the straight ohm setting.

  But I could not figure out which end to start reading from, the gray band 
looks like it could be white or silver to my eyes.

  So brown black blue black gray should be 106 ohms, right?

  How are you supposed to know which end to start with on these precision 
resistors?

  Is that first band grey or white?  Makes more sense that it’s grey.  806 ohms 
1%.
