crt question

A long time ago I had a ctc5 that I got from Fair radio in Lima, Oh. I used a crt tester and the pic tube tested very good. Got the set home and replaced caps and at first had no raster. I thought maybe the crt had gone to air or shorted so I retested it.

The inside of the neck was vibrant blue when I tested but yet no shorts and still good emissions. Ok so now its gassy.

Out of curiosity I retried the tv and once I turned the brightness up I had a raster with plenty of brightness to it. I went around the back of the set and checked but no gassy blue anymore.

Everytime I put the crt tester on it ..same thing blue glow but not when running the tv.........Why is that?

The crt was a 21axp22
