Friends,
I'm looking for a good home for my Runco DTV-852 3-gun CRT video projector.
It was $15,000 retail when new in 1997. It has an internal line doubler that's
active when using the S-Video input, also the input with the best color and
black level. It also has component video and sync inputs on BNC connectors.
It has plenty of useful life left -- it can still create movie magic in a
pitch dark room. It needs an 80" wide 16:9 screen at about 99" from the center
lens. (Focus, throw distance, and other parameters aren't adjustable without a
visit from a Runco technician, about $400 minimum.) It can't be moved once set
up -- it must be in a fixed position for the best image quality. A disparity
of less than two inches can throw off the focus, convergence, and linearity.
I have the owner's manual, setup remote and operating remote. I also have a
16:9 snap screen for rear-projection use and can set up the projector for rear
projection.
I'd love to donate it to a needy arts organization and will happily deliver
and help set it up within any reasonable distance of San Francisco, provided
that's the last I hear of it. No tech support: you take it, it's yours. Takers
need to be aware of its limitations: it's big, heavy, delicate, and has no
external adjustments.

First serious inquiry gets it. Take my dinosaur - please?
