Calibration notes: The greyscale measurement was dead flat on our pre-calibration run , and I have rarely seen it this perfect -- obviously this makes me suspicious.

I experimented with Advanced Contrast Enhancer -- which controls Frame Dimming -- and found that Medium still offered a perfect greyscale while Gamma did take a hit.

Color was unable to be corrected due to the limited controls and the blue issues were still evident even when color was at 100.
