    RPTV cleaning: Lenticular/fresnal lens

    Hi Gregg! I asked your fellow tech, Chuck, on this matter and he told me to use distilled water and 90% Isopropyl Alcohol with a towel. I haven't seen the Monster stuff around around. I'll be sending you an email soon though.

    RPTV cleaning: Lenticular/fresnal lens

    I got a response via email.. Thanks anyway.. You would think that posting on several HT forums you would get a response but since the set is 'old' no suggestions.

    RPTV cleaning: Lenticular/fresnal lens

    I just purchased a Panny 65" plasma and the newness of it made me think of my beloved RPTV which I haven't cleaned in 5 years - bad me! And with the move to another house and previously been in a place where smoking took place, I knew the set would be pretty nasty inside. Both the mirror and...

    Basic RPTV setup questions

    I am 40mi South of Erie -way over to the west with the lovely lake effect to boot! :) When you do the power button method, you'll see the wingnuts and just loosen them them and turn the top of the lens. Since your set is still new (mine is going on the 2nd month), there will be some...

    Basic RPTV setup questions

    Hey Justin, When doing service level tweaks, just write down the original number to change something back. I'd wait until you have over 100-200 hours on the set before doing anything really drastic. Anyhow, the manual focus can be done via several ways: 1. Involves pulling the...

    Basic RPTV setup questions

    This is what I did. Manual/electrostatic focus: My set needed a manual focus more then the electrostatic focus. DCAM convergence/geometry It seems that some of the factory convergence settings for the MF are a bit off from what I am reading at the board. A service level...

    Basic RPTV setup questions

    Justin, Magic Focus just resets back to the factory's convergence when you leave this setting on "Auto". First couple of months the sets do drift a bit thus losing focus/detail and might be able to correct it by enabling MF or.. By going to the manual mode for MF. As the instructed...

    Low freq. room gain calculator?

    Hmm.. You could take the speakers outside at either 1m or 2m distance and measure them with a good mic and analyzer and then bring the speakers back into the room and perform the same measurements. If you're using the old Rat Shack SPL meter be sure to get the corrected dB readings. It...
