Good Evening All,
Fred Flintstone here...err...I mean Mark...I feel like Fred though with my "antique" Hitachi Ultravision 50" RPTV (CU5002K)
It just turned 13 years old and believe it or not has never had any major problems....or cleanings.....until now.
Lately, about once every 2 weeks, the convergence jumps WAY out of wack.. I mean, like I see ghosting about 2" apart.
After about 5 minutes, it fixes itself and all is well. I am trying to get every last bit of use out of this TV, so I would at least like to clean it this weekend to see what it looked like when it was new. From reading posts, I need to do the following:
Clean the lenses of dust and dirt with a camera lens cloth?
Clean the vertically ribbed screen in a vertical motion with soap and water?
Clean the mirror behind the screen with some mild soap and water and dry with a lint free cloth?
Am I missing anything??
Can anyone take a stab at my convergence problem and a possible "cheap" fix??
thx a lot
Fred (Mark)
