== Overview ==
== Description ==
The JVC AV-36D800 is a 36-inch consumer CRT television released in 1999 as part of JVC's popular [[D-Series]] line. This is the flagship D-Series model, using the early '''GR2''' chassis with the '''JVC JCC1007A''' jungle IC, and including additional features like TV Guide Plus and VCR Plus+ built-in.


The '''JVC AV-36D800''' is a 36" consumer CRT television released in 1999 as part of JVC's popular [[D-Series]] line. This is the flagship D-Series model that uses the early GR2 chassis with the JVC JCC1007A jungle IC, and includes additional features like TV Guide Plus and VCR Plus built-in.
Unlike other 36" D-Series models, the AV-36D800 shares the same case design as older large JVC televisions rather than the standard D-Series case. It notably uses the '''RCA A90AFX15X''' tube with an '''invar shadow mask''', which is rare for RCA tubes and provides excellent thermal stability.

== Technical Details ==


=== Features ===
=== Chassis ===
The AV-36D800 uses the '''GR2''' chassis, featuring the '''JVC JCC1007A''' jungle IC. This early-era chassis is '''RGB moddable''' and has minimal raster bloom compared to later D-Series chassis.


* TV Guide Plus built-in
The 2-line digital comb filter provides quality composite and S-Video processing. This is the original D-Series comb filter before the upgrade to 3-line in 2001 models.
* VCR Plus+ programming
* BBE sound enhancement
* Black case design (older JVC large TV style)
* RCA tube with rare invar shadow mask


=== Technical Notes ===
=== Premium Features ===
The D800 series is distinguished from the D500/D200 by:
* '''TV Guide Plus''' - On-screen program guide
* '''VCR Plus+''' - One-touch recording programming


* Uses early-era D-Series chassis (Dx00) with JVC JCC1007A jungle
=== Tube ===
* Can be RGB modded
Uses the '''RCA A90AFX15X''' tube with an '''invar shadow mask'''. This is a rare feature for RCA tubes and provides:
* Has minimal raster bloom compared to later chassis
* Superior thermal stability
* 5W speakers per channel
* Reduced geometry drift during warmup
* Better color consistency


=== Service Menu ===
This makes the AV-36D800 particularly desirable among collectors.


To disable red push, access the service menu and set:
=== Red Push Fix ===
* '''DEMO AX RY''' to "0"
Early-era D-Series (Dx00) may exhibit oversaturated reds. To correct this in the service menu:
* '''CMP D AX R''' to "0"
# Navigate to '''DEMO AX RY''' → Set to '''0'''
# Navigate to '''CMP D AX R''' → Set to '''0'''
