Reply to Pontys arcade had a great day!by CraftyLOL, I have no idea what clamp settings are either but it catches out lots of people, including me until you come across it once. Then you never forget..... Great effort with getting it going with the flat screen. Easy conversion for these big rear projection flat screens.
