In order to mount a through hole resistor on a PCB whilst maintaining the
ability to change it easily one uses a pin which is a tight fit in the hole
and which is forked at the top for the resistor.

I am failing .to source some of these, probably because I don't know the

Try "Turret Terminals"... the ones with the forked top may have a more
specialized name - but this should get you going. Sources probably Cambion,
Keystone, Mill-Max.

Hope this helps you out

No. Turret terminals or turret tags are not really intended for PCB
mounting. They fit 1/8 inch holes on the tag strips used in old valve
gear.

It is turret terminals you are looking for : -

https://onecall.farnell.com/c/connectors/crimp-terminals-solder-terminals-splices/solder-press-mount-turret-terminals?searchref=searchlookahead

One about a third the way down the first page matches your description, but as you say, has a sizable hole. Others are just plain pins that would go into a component lead hole.

I only looked down the first page of 25, so there may be something more applicable for your use on a later page.

Certainly the split top produces the term "turret" as it results in something looking like castellation on a castle turret.

Thanks that is the one and they are stocked by Farnell
I remember now that I used them a lot in the days we were wire wrapping
prototypes.

Bad memories? Not of wire-wrapping, surely? A very civilised and cool
way of assembly compared with soldering wires.

And a conundrum which has bothered me for years.: why is the insulation
on wire used for the cool wrapping process (usually kynar) designed to
stand high temperature; whereas the wire used for hot soldering has
insulation which melts at soldering temperatures?

Cool enough - but a fairly effort intensive task.

Another contender (memory says) is Tefzel which (memory says) was somewhat
cheaper. Whether that's branding of PTFE coated silver plated wire or a
different flurocarbon I now forget but 'memory says' perhaps the latter. I
could have Googled that and appeared more knowledgeable (or memory
retentive) than I am :-).

Oh, yes ...
Tefzel™ ETFE Resin

Tefzel™ is a modified ETFE (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene) fluoroplastic
available as pellets or as powder for rotational molding. Tefzel™ ETFE
resin combines superior mechanical toughness with an outstanding chemical
inertness that approaches that of Teflon™ fluoroplastic resins. Tefzel™
features easy processibility, a specific gravity of 1.7, and high-energy
radiation resistance. Most grades are rated for continuous exposure at
150°C (302°F), based on the 20,000-hr criterion.

Processing

Tefzel™ ETFE fluoroplastic resins are processed by conventional
melt-extrusion techniques and by injection, compression, transfer,
rotational, and blow molding processes. The relatively high flow rate of
these ETFE resins provides higher rates with less draw-down, as compared to
those required for Teflon™ FEP and PFA. Reciprocating screw injection
molding machines are preferred. Long extruder barrels, relative to
diameter, should be used to provide residence time for melting these
high-temperature resins.

No more labour intensive than soldering wires. Especially if you buy the
pre-stripped wires and use a decent wrap tool.
(Remember that I am talking prototyping here not production where
assembling a PCB is obviously far easier)

I think that Knylar insulation is used because it does not release toxic
gases when heated, which would be unfortunate in a space ship.

I am failing .to source some of these, probably because I don't know the
correct term to put into Google.
What on earth are they called?

What you are wanting, is a 'machine pin socket'.

Jameco has them:

You can try "slotted solder terminals". For example:

https://www.mill-max.com/assets/pdfs/243.pdf

These are designed to be swaged/staked into a PCB so they won't come loose
when the solder at the bottom melts.

The 3622 is press fit into a plated hole.

Of course if the Chinese bother to make these they'd probably be 1/10 the
price.

Again, those are very big. The 2.8mm mounting hole isn't really
consistent with 2.5 mm pitch boards

I think you're after flea clips. Keystone electronics makes them. Part
number 1500 is in stock at Digikey and Mouser for 16 cents a piece.

Thanks! I've been meaning to look these up for a project brewing in my
mind. ;)

I remember those. I probably still have the insertion tool for them. Somewhere. A good reminder to get back to death cleaning!

Best regards,
Bob
