In reading this thread and the thread that was linked, it sure does bring back memories. I remember when color TV was a new thing. I just didn't remember the change in color. But I sure do know what you are talking about. I had a Heathkit GR-2000 (I think that is the number) that had a Zenith CRT in it. I always felt that the colors favored earthtones. I thought that it was similar to the 70s obsession with browns and oranges. No bright blues, greens or reds.
I also remember working for EJ Korvette. I worked in the Audio Dept. which was right next to what they called "Major Appliances". In that dept., they had a room with doors that had all of the color sets in it. It was a very dim room. Hmmm, there's a surprise! I just hope to one day have a set with the early phosphors in it.
Again, thanks for explaining and taking the time to search and post.
