The symptoms you are seeing are classic to a failing CRT in these series of
sets.

Hello all,
I noticed my 1992 KV27-XBR35 color quality had taken a decided turn
for the worse.  Turning down the color control all the way reveals an
image that appears bright blue/green in color.
It used to have a pretty good grey scale.
My wife told me (she watches it more than me) that before
this happened, the picture, over a period of days,
would occasionaly appear too bright, almost as if the tube was
being overloaded.
This is not a the case where either the red, blue or green gun
has died completely - they all have a presence on the screen.
But they are out of whack.
Please advise - I realize the TV is old, but any background on
possible issues appreciated.
Dave
