Got an email from a guy in Aliso that bought a home with a PG in it, and it has tube wear. The option is either to send the set here for a retube, or sell him an XG, but then someone still needs to converge and tweak it. He's on the fence, as everyone is telling him to go digital.

If I can tell him someone here can tweak it, I think he'll stay with CRT.

Let me know.

Thanks!

I'm about 60 miles away but have never even seen the inside of a PG.

a PG isn't so bad, after a while, if your fairly familiar with a few CRT projectors in general, the PG is pretty straight forward... I have a PG here and its as easy as pie to work on (now that I know how to Mr. Green

If he needs a red tube I can sell him one! Doubt the green and blue on my PG are worth much, they are about 6's 7 tops

Hope he finds some help! Keep him away from digital puke!

One last bump. Is there really not anyone nearby that wants to make a few $$ to do this? If you know your way around any other set, the NEC XG or PG will be pretty straightforward...
