----- HDTV Magazine Tips List -----
Thanks very much Richard. I found an NESDA service center about 50 miles
away. I have schematics/wiring diagrams for the Toshiba set. There may
even be a parts list somewhere in there (been a long time since I looked
at them...) Is "hyper module" a part name that would be listed if I have
the parts list? If not, is there another descriptor for that
module/component?
I spoke to the ISF calibrator who's coming at the end of April for the
Sony LCD (he originally calibrated both previous Toshiba RPTVs). He name
is Gregg Loewen from www.LionAV.com. He wasn't familiar with the problem
I described. I'm sure he'd make time to tune up the Toshiba set if I can
get it repaired before he shows up.
