On your set odds are the heater is NOT the problem. If the G-2 is
set right look at this:
The pix is bad when the set is cold but gets better with time.
The pix improves with reduced brightness & contrast.
Thats all assuming the 200 V DC for the three video outputs is good.
At this point a manual would be needed. Any NAP chassis will work if
a close match ( C-5, C-6 etc. ).

Both things you suggeted is right. The picture is worse at the beginning, but gets better over time; and the picture is a little clearer during dark scenes (and turning down brightness/contrast. I set it at 2/3 contrast, almost 0 brightess, since that gave me a decent picture, and the brightness isn't necessary to see anything.) Not to say that at any point the picture is terrible, just a bit blurry. ALSO I set the Color pot to like 2/3 as well. All the way up is way too much color to me.
I have the appropriate manual for this TV + Chassis, unfortunately it's over the file size limit, and even making a compressed file leaves it over the limit. I'll have to find an alternative way to share it.
If anyone else has a smaller file manual, it's a 26C8 Chassis.
Edit: I haven't checked the G2 yet, but this is what it's doing at its current settings.
