The following sources.list which I copied from
wiki.debian.org/SourcesList works perfectly for me
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main non-free-firmware
contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main non-free-firmware
contrib non-free
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main
non-free-firmware contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main
non-free-firmware contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main
non-free-firmware contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security
main non-free-firmware contrib non-free
Thanks to the many responders who coached me through my rambling,
incoherent path to this solution.
My apologies to the many responders who I misled with dumb entries.
I hope this ends the search for all.
