Walt,

This is from an RCA service bullion:

Symptom: The tuner cannot be aligned correctly using the XX15053-470
microprocessor built in service mode.
Cause: An error in the microprocessor code causes the incorrect value to be
stored in the EEPROM when the alignment is made using the built in service
mode.
Cure: If the microprocessor is marked XX15053-470, use Chipper Check
software to align the tuner. If the microprocessor is marked XX15053-47A,
the built in service mode should align correctly.

I don't know if this problem would affect alignments other than tuner, but
it may.  Hope this helps.

| Hi all,
| This set will not hold memory for vertical adjustment.  When I reset the
| vertical value the picture fills the screen properly, however, when I exit
| the menu, the vertical is down about 4 inches at the top.  Changed
EEPROM-no
| luck.  Could this be a jungle problem?  TIA.
