Have you seen the inside of it? Does it have a lot of Hitachi labeled components?

Picture looks good. Just needs some convergence work. Between this and that Sony set, I'm starting to actually kind of want an old style projection set.

Tuner is a twelve channel varactor tuner and any one of the twelve channels can be tuned from channel 2-83.

I havn't opened it up so I don't know, but I looked in the service manual and most of the part numbers start with H. If that means anything.

Thanks, I'll follow instructions in the manual and set the convergence and take it from there. Also just cleaning the mirror and crt's did help the picture considerably.
Is a very sharp focused picture possible with this or should I just settle for pretty good? Thanks, Paul
