21FBP22A vs 15GP22/21AXP22

Wayne, thanks for the reply. I reran the 27in Sony by brightening the white bar. It was way too dark before which caused the red bar to saturate and as you said, "wash-out". The new results:
21in FBA.……………Red contaminated with 5.6% green and 8.2% blue
13in Sony……………Red contaminated with 12.6% green and 6.3% blue
27in Sony……………Red contaminated with 29.2% green and 21.3% blue

Somewhat less contaminated but still way orangish red compared to the Sony pro and the 21CT55 with 21FBP22A. The stated 255,0,0 RGB was "ideal" with no hardware limitations. I believe this simple and cheap method of relative phosphor comparisons can be quite useful when comparing the original NTSC rated crts eg 15GP22 and 21AXP22 with the gray screen 21FBP22A. All I need is optimally setup color bar screenshots of the original GP/AXPs. I don't have much hope for a live eyeball shootout that includes the gray screen 21FBP22A, certainly not one I may witness.
