NOTICE...WARNING...
For ALL who read this...
This is a VERRRY Long post...
It covers a varity of issues that richpart , potcode & Gussie girl have raised...
I HAVE backed up my statements with PROOF...
Something they did NOT do...
After all is said & done , you'll understand why I did this....
THANKS for your patience...
potcode , I'll start with you first;....
You have 4 posts here & you have the nerve to attack me ????
I checked ALL 4 of your posts & at NONE of them did I say ANYTHING against YOU...NONE !!!!
Then you post a negative post against me because ian33 got HIMSELF in trouble with the Forum God & me....
The post that got him banned was FULL of profanity & bigotry that has zero tolerance here on THIS forum....
Your thought process is a bit flawed !!!
RON guy has a problem when people with experience and talent that come in here
How many of MY posts (I have 1521 posts, GOOD LUCK) have you read to come to that erroneous conclusion ???
To the new teks that will come here if you have some good skills and one ip adress please dont show it ,cause RON will try his best to piss u off and get u banned
I piss off IDIOTS , NOT those INTELLIGENT folks that give GOOD , SOUND , ACCURATE advice to posters....
Good techs don't come here because of the likes of Gussie Girl & others who attack decent techs trying to do what they can to help people out...
Your IQ is showing when you say "and one ip adress please dont show it"...
Show me ONE IP address here....
Not too computer savvy are you ???
richpart;....
I came on here 2 months after signing up and posted something and you were the FIRST ONE followed the pussy cat icon fella to make disparaging remarks.
You signed up on Oct,1,2009...
I signed up on Jan,30,2009....
I went back & searched from Jan,2009 thru Jan , 2010 of MY posts & searched from Oct,1,2009 thru Jan,10 of THIS YEAR (2011) & found this;=>...
http://www.tv-forums.com/...cgi?post=92834#92834
Which had NOTHING to do with the problem !!!!
We'll NEVER know what EXACTLY was the problem because YOU ran him off with an argument & erroneous info...
That's a 2 year difference from what you implied..."
that being that the 2 of us started back in 2009 when you ACTUALLY were CORRECTED 2 months ago....
So are you wrong or a LIAR !!!!
Now your 1st post here...For those whose thumb wheel is worn out;=>...

That LOOOOONNNNGGGG FOOOORRRREEEVVVEEERRR ONNNNGGGOOOIIINNNGGG POOOOSSSTTT !!!!!!
Can be called "SPAM" !!!!
Reason is that it came UNSOLICITED !!!!
NO ONE ASKED for that info....
Check it out....OR not !!!
Gussie girl....
I should have recognised that lousy New Yorker attitude....
I could give a rats @$$ about your income,house or family...
I sleep VERY well knowing you are 1000's of miles away from decent people here...
Now for the fun stuff....
Back in Nov,2009 this crap with you started...
http://www.tv-forums.com/...cgi?post=59984#59984
44 posts here , I'll pick out the pertinent posts...
I gave you DETAILED info here;...
http://www.tv-forums.com/...cgi?post=59994#59994
You said;..
This is the kind of direction I was hoping to find ...I will set up and follow your instructions and post my findings.
Both happy , so far....
Then this;..."I know enough to know that I don't know enough..go easy on me".... & I did...
& this;=>..."I will know more once I follow Ron's instructions"...
The problem with Gussie girl started here;=>...
I am not too enthusiastic on removing the screen due to the optics involved
Gussie girl is a Laser tech....You know the gadgets that IDIOTS are using to try to blind pilots in commercial airplanes to cause them to crash...
OPTICS , OPTICS ....
He's worried about OPTICS in a projection TV....
My answer;...
Removing the screen as I told you earlier & repeated below will NOT affect the optics....Useing crap coolant (mineral &/or baby oil) will...

This is for refference;=>....
Sometimes I come across angry..it's a gift of mine,unfortunatly I also look angry in person as well,but I am really a fun guy..misunderstood both verbaly,visualy and in written form.You have to know me to understand.My wife always laughs at me when I get involved in these forums..she always asks..who did you p**s off now? It's always someone...everytime...
Decided to go in the back way here;=>...

Where I said;...
A "Service Manual" is for repair Tech's...
IF your convergence is "good" or "OK" , then you don't need to go &
mess with something that could give you a bigger problem
This is where he/she wants to get into the "Factory Service" menu to mess with something he/she has NO bussiness to do so !!!!
And he/she says the following;=>...
Ron,
I want to go into the setup for 2 reasons.
1) sheer curiosity...
2) to confirm everything is correct before I change the red fluid.
This from someone that's NOT a TV tech...
My response;=>...
Point #1=NOT a good enough reason....Remember curiosity killed the cat...
Point #2=NOTHING has changed in the "Factory Menu" since all you did was change coolant....
NO need to go there & check data that has NOT changed...
And HOW exactly are you going to determine what is correct & what isn't correct ????
Are you NOT satisfied with the info I just gave you concerning convergence ???
Then the screw issue arose...
I would believe that the convergence has many factors involved with it (position of that fish eye lens,torque of the screws,ect)
My reply , in part as a lot of other quotes are;=>...
Position of the fish eye lens , yes , but there is NO way to throw that alignment off without causing damage & possibly leakage....
Torque of the screws,etc, NO way !!!
His/her comment;...
I believe you are most informative on televisions.However,I still cannot help but ask you why you would think that the torque on the screws would not interfere with the alignment of the crt's?
&
If you have a round object(or lens in this case) with a rubber gasket, with 4 equal points of attachment,and if you tighten one screw a little more than the other that is adjacent to it,(or across) the posistion of the focus lens would be effected,therfore changing the angle of the beam,effecting the convergence..and in the case of the crt,possbly causing it to leak.Dont you agree?(many variables there)
The argument is started....
My reply;=>...
First off , you are NOT installing heads on a car engine here....
As in replacing a head gasket....
We ARE talking about TVs here....
ALL the screws on the lens assemblies are to be hand tightened fully , firmly & well seated....
In my 50+ years of repairing TVs , NOT one EVER required a torque wrench of ANY kind.....
Read the rest here;....

In the next post he/she REFUSED to understand what I said & he/she said this;=>... I do have a $150 special torque screwdriver I use for optics at work...It was not used in this aplication.Using a torque screwdriver when you have no torque specifications is like swimming without water.
Argue all you want...it will effect the lens...period...maybe not enough to be a factor in this case...but it will effect it.
The notion that you need a "torque screwdriver" to install the lenses is ABSOLUTELY LUDICROUS !!!!
To everyone;....
NOWHERE did I say that Gussie girl HAD to do the coolant change MY way...NOWHERE !!!!
Read the ENTIRE thread if you don't believe me...
IF you find ANYTHING that EVEN remotely resembles that line of thinking , post a link to it , PM me & I'll send you a $1,000 cash Money Order or any other way you want it...
What did piss him/her off was the fact that I would NOT give him/her the code to get the "Factory Menu" & the issue over the "torque screwdriver" for the lenses...
For that he/she carries on an attack , insulting vendetta that is now in it's 2nd year...
Gussie girl did NOT admit he/she was wrong in another thread & he/she refused to listen to my advice refering to the "Torque" issue...
Gussie girl insisted that he/she needed to "Torque" the lenses...
Karma is a bitch , gussie , Gussie girl you WILL get your comeupance some day....
It may/may not be from me personally....
What goes around , comes around...
potcode ;....
To the new teks that will come here if you have some good skills
We have some TERRIFIC techs here...
We also have some TERRIBLE techs here....
I like to weed those guys out....
We also had an EXCELLENT tech here leave on May,25,2009....
His name is slinteriors...
He gave 100% ACCURATE INTELLIGENT help & was a REALLY NICE guy....
NOTHING like you 3 JERKS...
Here's his link...
http://www.tv-forums.com/...cgi?post=48126#48126
Here's what he said UNCENSORED;=>....
This forum has become a circus for idiots , why have a forum if the people asking for assistance get stupid answers from people and the people who try to sincerely help get insulted. I was raised that if you have nothing intelligent to say then you should keep your mouth shut, and if someone asks for help, help if you can but dont go out of your way to mislead someone because you think you may know more than the person asking your assistance. We were all newbies once, and if we didnt have a source of valid info and training we would all still be newbies.
I couldn't have said it better...
You can read my reply at the link...
Now listen up EVERYBODY....
I have answered a LOT of your BULL & backed up my statements with PROOF & links to that & other issues....
IF you expect me to reply to any more of your nonsense , you better have PROOF or be able to hold you breath FOREVER!!!!
ANY comments , if not....
See ya.....Ron.M........
