I recently bought this TV locally (Omaha Ne) and everything works fine but My apartment is too small to accommodate it. Also the colour convergence is off and for the love of god I can't get it to corrected. I've never delt with a CRT projector before and boy is it difficult. I'm in over my head! I'm here to sell it off for parts. The whole thing is intact at the moment so if anyone wants to tell me what they want off it I'll pull it for best offer plus shipping or local pickup is going to be free of course. If anyone is interested let me know. its a neat old TV with a 50 inch curved screen. if you want pictures email me at genso13@yahoo.com Thanks for looking!

Do you have any pictures of it? It'll probably help with a sale.

OR you could post a help needed in the Direct View TV forum. Maybe someone there can help you converge it.

here's a picture of it. it isn't on or anything. I'll try to get the middle of the screen fixed later so you can see it working. I can get one part of the screen looking good but the will be off in some way.

Sweet! I love the old front projection sets! It's all analog for the controls I take it? There's a bunch of little pots you need to turn to do the convergence?

yeah, there are loads of them. I think about 12 plus the ones in the hidden compartment by the speaker. I've probabaly spent 6-8 hours in the past 3 weeks trying to adjust it. not much luck. I'm pretty good with electronics but this is just silly. I'd love to get it working but I doubt I have the skill.

There's a logical progression when adjusting a CRT projector. You start by getting Red and Blue centres on green and work out from there. The edges are the last thing you do.
