Small, inconsequential point Hal. The required socket is 1-1/16". As chance would have it, I bought a socket yesterday and changed the anode.

BTW, it was quite pitted. But after 2 yrs, not too bad. It is recommended by Suburban that the hot water tank be drained when not in use. Otherwise deterioration may be accelerated. I have adhered to that advice since purchasing my TM new.
