  We present a level (10,30) numerical computation of the spectrum of quadratic
fluctuations of Open String Field Theory around the tachyonic vacuum, both in
the scalar and in the vector sector. Our results are consistent with Sen's
conjecture about gauge-triviality of the small excitations. The computation is
sufficiently accurate to provide robust evidence for the absence of the photon
from the open string spectrum. We also observe that ghost string field
propagators develop double poles. We show that this requires non-empty BRST
cohomologies at non-standard ghost numbers. We comment about the relations of
our results with recent work on the same subject.
