I had one of those Magnavox inline CRT 19" sets with the dot burned in the center of the screen. The problem with that one (and a similar 13" Philco) was insulation breakdown on the yoke windings and the resulting carbon track. The set would work a short time then the sweep would collapse with a nice bright spot in the center, eventually causing a burnt spot in the phosphor. Great picture when actually working, though.
