Default Apex Television Secret Menu Adjust Size

Apex TV Television Overscan Menu Title Safe Size Adjust Secret Service
Menu Off Screen Problems

After buying a 27" TV at Ultimate Electronics for $169, was
disappointed to see the overscan problems the set had. Surfed the net
and found the secret menu and was able to adjust the H and V size and
a bunch of other stuff. Still a low quality set (tube surface has a
lot of impections warping the pic and such--but only a pro would
really notice.) But, at $169, who can complain?

To access the secret service menu, turn the volume down to zero, press
the mute button, then AT THE SAME time, press and hold down the MUTE
BUTTON ON THE REMOTE and the MENU BUTTON ON THE TV SET for three
seconds....the menu will pop up. Use the arrow keys on the remote to
navigate the menu and also change the settings (up down to change
items, left right to change settings). Also, right let on top menu
line will change menu #. The horizonal items (called zoom or
something) changes the horiz scan and a couple menus later the
vertical items can be adjusted. Just as you'd expect, you can shift
the pic, change the height, width, etc. I also found the manual on
the web.
