Brett, I have a 32 inch non-wega Sony, and it has several problems. I got factory in home service to fix the rotated image, but there was not much they could do about the keystone effect. The yoke probably does need to be mechanically rotated on the back of the tube. High voltage stuff. If...

Damon, I have a similar problem a small video cabinet with glass doors. I got a 120V muffin 4 inch muffin fan that claimed 30DB noise on the package, but when installed registered more like 55DB on my SPL. I have purchased, but not yet installed, a 3 inch to see if I can get it quiter. May...

I just used Avia for the first lime yesterday to tune a 32 in Sony direct view TV. I seemed to do OK just tuning for no halo on the veritcal black lines. A note: Human visual system can create the halos out of nothing. If you stare fixedly at one spot in a pattern long enough, the rods and...

I have recently had a similar problem with a yamaha receiver. Too little ventilation and the receiver went into thermal overload shut down when playing ID4 at too loud a level. So, I punched a few holes in the back and added a couple of 4 inch 120V AC muffin fans, plugged into the auxilairy...

It took a long time to find the permalloy strips, but I finnaly talked a tech out of a few of his fromthe local Sony service store. He was convinced I would electrocute my self tying it, but gave me the strips, plus the instructions: keep one hand in you pocket, with the other DO NOT touch the...

I was able to perchase a service manual from Sony for $42 (called 1-800-488-7669). With the manual I was able to get into the service menu and made HUGE improvements in the geometery, but there are no software controls one the convergence. Primary converegence is done with the defelection yoke...

I have just ordered a copy of Avia from Amazon.Com for $42 plus shipping. I did a search and found prices as low as $38, but not from companies I had worked with before, or even heard of. And, I bought several other disks at the same time, and the total price of all disks from Amazon was not...

my 32 inch Sony is becoming more badly converged, especially the bottom left corner. Can I re-do the convergence myself, or do you need special equipment/codes? And if it must be proffesionally done, how much will it cost? I saw other posts say $700 for full calibration, but that is nearly the...

Howard, I have in the past replaced my main electrical box with a whole new service, including addin two new grounding rods. I used the fence post setter described above, then pounded below ground level with a hammer. If your main electrical box on the outside of the house has circuit...

my mistake I do not have the 3922 as my free reveiver, it looks to be a 2800. And even it has the S-video interface. My problem was that it has only one set of audio outputs, so I can't run seperate connections to my s-vhs vcr and the tv. Guess I will have to get some Y-connectors to get...

Bill, I got Dishnetwork myself about 2 months ago, and like it very much. Productivity around the house has dropped considerably :). In my deal, I bought one receiver, a 4922(?) and dish, and got the second receiver and installation free. I think my second receiver is the 3922. It has no...
