They look so much better with the setup wrong, don't they.

BTW: convergence, purity, grayscale, deflection/geometry, and user controls adjustments are referred to as SETUP adjustments, and what you did is a SETUP PROCEDURE (new sets often received it prior to customer delivery, and/or at customer residence upon delivery thus the name setup). Alignment is where you get a Sweep/marker generator, an oscilloscope, and a diddle stick and adjust every slug in the tuner and IF till the video frequency response curve matches factory spec. Best to not confuse the two. Setup can be done by most people (with instructions), and should be repeated occasionally, but alignment (is very difficult and) should not need to be done after the factory except under extreme circumstances where uncommon failure in those systems or "screw driver drift" have made an alignment necessary.....We don't want noobs with convergence problems bleeping with the IF slugs because someone recommended preforming an alignment.

*(please don't read the caps as shouting, but rather read them in a dramatically deep TV announcer voice with lots of reverb.)
