I noticed the set has Instant On, the CRT heater stays lit when the power is turned off.
If I unplug it for a bit then turn it back on the CRT looks really crummy for a bit until it warms up a little, details like subtitles are very blurry like the tube is old and gassy, also the brightness has to be backed way down so it doesn't looked washed out and have retrace lines.
The picture here isn't the best but it gives a pretty good idea of what text looks like on the screen.

A soft tube if ive ever seen one. Dont think I would even risk a rejuve
on it considering its value. Sams calls for a 190FB4, did
they change that too? CRT alway at full fil. voltage ( 11VDC) not a good idea
