It's not unusual to be unable to see all the text on a vintage set.

The picture expanding with brightness is because the HV is sagging when you draw a lot of current at high brightness.

The other problem I notice when I watch a DVD is that the macrovision and teletext at the top of the scan is quite bright and that's where I get most of the scattering off of the corner of the CRT bell.

When you say that there is a black band on the right side, are you talking about the width of the blanking or that you have insufficent horizontal (or miscentered)?
