Problem getting a ISF certified calibration...

I am having the hardest time getting someone certified with ISF and has all the correct equipment to calibrate my Samsung rear projection TV. I live in the Huntsville, AL area, so I have Birmingham and Nashville and Chattanooga nearby, but I can't find anyone that will calibrate it. I've called all the companies listed at ISF's site. Does anyone here live in this area and has found a ISF calibrator service? Thanks.

Do yourself a favor and go to Hometheaterspot.com. There are quite a few talented calibrators there. and guess what some of them aren't even ISF certified. Actually from what I understand ISF doesn't even use the word certified anymore. They prefer trained because that is all the class does is train you in the ISF phylosophy. Don't get so hung up on the ISF label. Find somebody who understands your brand and hopefully your model enough to really make it look its best. There are many calibrators who specialize on certain brands or models so if yours is not one of them although they can calibrate it they might not understand that little things about it that make a difference. Aks in the Spot furums for recommendations from other Sammy owners to see who they hired and if they were happy with the results.
