Your on the right track by covering the red and blue...etc

As far as the height and width , an inch or two of over scan is typical. We
use a Sencore pattern generator with the large circle pattern. Also....to
fine tune I use CNN ! The news crawl at the bottom is a good indicator for
proper height.

Unless someone really screwed with the adjustment pots , these adjustments
shouldn't be that far.

I hope this is not off topic. I repaired leaking tubes on this set. I now
need to adjust convergence.
I am using the convergence menu built into the set.
My question is how wide and tall do I make the grid on screen?
By this I mean : on the left side of the pattern there is a 'V' shape at
the
ends of the horizontal lines. How close to the edge do I put them? Same
for the 'hash mark' on the vertical lines. Do I put them right on the
edge
of the screen or just off the viewing area?
I have never done this before and I dont have a manual. I'm using the
instructions on the label on the front of the tv.

I covered the red and blue lenses and adjusted the green first by itsself.
I want to make sure I'm doing it right before I do all 3 colors(it is not
an
easy adjustment process).
I just got the green done but had to leave town for several days. Will
get
back to it soon.
Thanks Roy
