Well I bought a used g70 from downtown tampa's Bank of America building..it was connceted to three others.After a hard day of finally getting it home.I opened it up.It was slammed full of dust and cobwebs..no bugs..I had the shop vac on for about an hour and compressed air Trying to due the converge on it..
Green,red line up verticle blue is off..So im calling it a night..
Now remember Im still a rookie and p.s. I have a question outside in the back above the back panel I have a board with digital numeral display thats plugged in.I've only had my other g70 which is spotless and doesnt have this feature..does anybody know?
I'll check in tomarrow when I get home from work..Hope I can line up the blue...also plugged in my hd dvd player into it.Only thing played dvd picture was the green tube. and yes when I picked it up I watch the local news being played on it to show it worked. goodnight all.

For the blue, use the 'zone 1'. function. The R and B shift are the fine tuning for the coarse adjustment of zone 1.
All G70s should have that dual digit display. That displays error codes when the set has a problem.
Wait a couple of weeks. I'm sure Bank of America will be throwing out the other three. 
In installs like this, you will probably either have toasty tubes.. or minty ones.
Tell the beancounters of the bank that the projectors have been written off the books years ago, and they should be happy you're not charging THEM to take them away!

Code 22 is Abnormal in the 115 volt line
pow 2 115 def
I Googled the error code. I know nothing about it or how to fix

Why were you screwing in the "H" screw"? Don't take this the wrong way, do you know what that screw does?
I'm guessing PA board but I defer to Curt.
