The centering rings? I asked myself. There is no way I could have knocked
them that far out, IF I even touched them. Well at this point I don't care.
I was able to bring the green into the red and blue with the rings. I don't
see how I could have possibly moved the rings approx 180 degrees but at
this point I am thrilled with just having to converge it now.---jeesh--as I
typed that I realized that I had subbed out the convergence board to
diagnose---put original back in--voila--no convergence needed
I am groveling at your feet with appreciation these last couple of days
guys. My mind has been mush because of other extenuating circumstances. It
feels like I am fighting my way out of the fog---mentally
Thanks
