Ahem. You are so very right. Somehow it escaped me that what I want for the 
setup is the CA cert, this despite dirmngr.conf having the line: hkp-cacert

Now things work. I feel a bit foolish, but it's just wounded ego.

David Wood wrote me off-list and pointed out 
https://bugs.g10code.com/gnupg/issue1792 fixes access to my keyserver so I am 
writing for clarification.

Thank you Kristian and Daniel and David for your help.
