Richard,
Your post probably brought back a lot of memories. The first time I
attempted a major convergence, I had the same fate.
Three things are required. 1. A crosshatch pattern. It cannot be done
using just the built-in "crosshairs." This will take a pattern generator
or (much cheaper) an alignment tape such as Zenith #892-58 2.
Information from the service manual on the function of each control. 3.
Patience. Will take a lot of time, especially since many controls have
been turned.
I should have that manual, but can't seem to find it, yet.
Please give your fax number so (when I find the manual) I can copy the
material you need and send it to you.
