== RGB Modification ==
== RGB Modification ==
The JVC AV-20D202 is RGB-moddable via mux. This CRT uses the same board as the JVC AV-27230, so the RGB mod instructions for that model apply directly to the AV-20D202. The modification typically involves muxing into the OSD (On-Screen Display) RGB inputs.
This model is RGB-moddable via mux. It uses the same board as the [[JVC AV-27230]], so RGB mod instructions for that model apply directly. The modification involves muxing into the OSD RGB inputs.
 
=== Additional Modifications ===
* Vertical edge enhancement can be minimized by removing resistor R239 on the bottom of the main board
 
== Service Information ==
This model shares a common service manual with the AV-27D302, AV-27D202, and AV-27230. Despite its smaller size, it uses the same FV4 chassis and similar internal components as the 27-inch models.


== Known Issues ==
Vertical edge enhancement can be minimized by removing resistor R239 on the bottom of the main board.
* Picture settings do not automatically save and require a specific process to store changes
