well youll never get the convergence perfect on that set. hehe. Well your convergence is a little bit better than mine, and mine wont get any better than it is.
Also my green tube is way more burned in than your green tube, but its nice and strong. But your burn-ins on your blue is standing out pretty well in the corners.

Yes Brand new Green tube. Very nice
 Is that why its dark on the left edge and Bright on the right edge...? the blue tube? My blue seems like it's the next dimmest tube. But yes on a white screen you can see theres some burning and fading in areas. I Guess to some one with a good projector, this would not pass as usable for anything. As I've been told by people on the AVS forum. Nothing to do about the burns as far as I know. Its the actual phosphor which is burned up right? Oh well I think it looks great. It was the camera pictures that actually let me see any poor convergence. For cartoons and my games this thing will be awsome. And I have a dumb idea but it still seems cool in my head. Since this projector cost me maybe 50$. If I get another one. I might just mount this thing on top of my car. I like to get out of the house and usually go for a coffee and watch a episode of something on a laptop. I could just stick it on top. Cover it. Then drive up to any large store. And bingo bango I'm drawing a crowd haha. Not that I'd want a bunch of people standing around my car, but I think it would be cool. Cheers Rudy

Thanks for the comments guys! And yes Wall E is a very good movie. A good eye opener if yaknow what I mean
I tried playing x box 360 on it earlier. Call of Duty 5 Amazingly....you could play. You could read everything on the screen and could see most things. I actually managed to play through half a level. It was hard to see the bad guys though. But if you've ever played the game you know it's pretty hard to notice them anyways. I was impressed. And for a party this projector is definatley Guitar Hero worthy :P More pictures! The video signal is 800x600 pixles.

Awwww man
 I turned it on today to watch a movie and the green was on super bright. There was also a spot in the center that had no green(Looked like a mark on the wall) There were some diagnol lines to at first. It still shows picture but it is not right. I thought for a second it might be heater to cathode short please tell me its notI still have some control over the brightness of it but it gets very bright very fast to say the least. To test for shorts do I have to turn the heaters on first? Thanks for the help

pics tell 1000 words. better check the CRT face to make sure you didnt burn anything in.
the retrace lines are caused by over-driven G2 voltage, as the CRT isnt going into cutoff during the retrace when its supposed to.

DAMN IT
i have a burn in my phosphor. Causing the black mark SH*T! The mark almost looks external but i know it's ruined. I'm just so mad I have no idea how it happened. It looked fine the day before. The only thing I can think of is the one or two times I shut it off and it did that little dot thing like some TVs used to do. I knew it wasn't normal. I'm not so happy anymore.

Awww man it probably is totally my fault.
When it acted up on me I fidled with the picture and black level settings. These make teh picture brighter and stuff. I may of left them cranked up with a black screen. (Which at the time showed green) Then it probably happened.....I'll never forgive myself. I'll get some pics of the burn. The burn sorta looks like the black shadow of your cursor(mouse) But inverted.

See how the A is red
It's because the small dot that the screen made at shut off burnt RIGHT THROUGH the phosphor and it no longer lights in that spot. Its a real bummer its right in teh middle of the screen. But for my original plan which is just to play nintendo on this thing Thats OK I Guess. I was happier when it didn't have the burn. But I feel much more OK about it now then I did yesterday. And now I know. Never leave a set that doesnt seem to be working right. WITH ITS BRIGHTNESS CRANKED!!  P.S. This is a wiked game for nintendo. It's one of those jet fighter games where you move around the screen and shoot up wild getting power ups. The first time I played it on the projector I almost laughed my ass off. Just after the begining screen, to add effect, they go through a list of checks. Yaknow Like most airplanes do. Engines OK, Shields OK, Weapons OK. I laughed because the very first check that it says in this game is....IMAGE PROJECTOR....OK! And since I could read it. I agreed and laughed
