contents Consider the approximation $\tilde{Z}_N(s) = \sum_{n=1}^N n^{-s} + χ(s) \sum_{n=1}^N n^{1-s}$ of the Riemann zeta function $ζ(s)$, where $χ(s)$ is the ratio of the gamma functions. This arise from the approximate functional equation of $ζ(s)$. Gonek and Montgomery have shown that $\tilde{Z}_N(s)$ has 100\% of its zeros lie on the critical line. Recently, $a$-values of $\tilde{Z}_N(s)$ for non-zero complex number $a$ are studied and it has been shown that the $a$-values of $\tilde{Z}_N(s)$ are cluster arbitrarily close to the critical line. In this paper, we show that, despite the above, 0\% of non-zero $a$-values of $\tilde{Z}_N(s)$ actually lie on the critical line itself. For $ζ(s)$ at most $50\%$ non-zero $a$-values lie on the critical line is known due to Lester. We also extend our results to approximations of a wider class of $L$-functions.
