Default "Tuning up" a projection TV.

Hey guys,

We've got an RCA big screen projection TV,it's probably ~13 years
old,I think.
Anyways,the picture is kind of dark and blurry,and I was wondering if
there was anything -simple- that I could do to help it out?
I've never worked on a PJ TV before,so I'm not entirely sure how to go
about things.
I'm thinking I'll pop the back off and clean the dust off of the screen
and optics,as a start.That should help,considering it don't think it's
ever been cleaned out in there!

I'm not sure how this beast is focused,I vaguely recall some kind of
On-screen menu that had some focus/convergence stuff in it..I'll have to
play around with the remote and see if I can find the menu again,Cause I
don't really want to mess with the RGB 'cans',other than to wipe some
dust off of them.(atleast until I know what I'm doing.)

Any other simple tips/tricks?


Thanks! Pat.
