Well, I see you're still going. I had to go out, to try and find some manuals, and parts, for a couple of TV's, I have to work on. No luck. And, when i was writing before, somehow,, a page or two, did not get saved, and somehow got erased, and I could not recover it. SO, I had to "take a break" so to speak.

Then, after the failure finding those parts, from my friend, I decided to "play around" a little. On AK, some of us have been discussing old LD players and discs. I have a couple of Laserdisc players, including one older than you, from 1981. I also have several discs I acquired at an auction, such as "Jaws", Twilight Zone, the movie', and "Friday the 13th". I decided to dig out that old Pioneer LD player, and "see what would happen, just for the "heck" of it(If I could get 'er goin', it makes me happy, to resurrect an old, forgotten electronic device. ) Well, the old 1981 player is playing Twilight Zone right now, with NO problems. SO, I had a little success on that front!! On a day of general letdown's (including our team, but that was expected, BUT they gave the Colts a GREAT run for their money,) that small success helped a bit.

cool. BTW about the RCA 2000, do you still have to adjust the convergence or is it automatic like current TV sets?

BTW, At least the "jungle cats" gave the Colts a tough fight, the Steelers kind of folded against the "ratbirds" with Tommy Maddox. I'm glad the windows are closed this time of year, with all the yellin' and hollerin' mom was doing yesterday, you think she was murdering me. B-) She did say, "I can be a better quarterback than Maddox." I got to mosey on over to AK a bit more, been busy.
