Sounds like an internal G2 to Focus Grid short in the pix tube.
Check the G2 voltage on the CRT Board when pix is good.
When Pix goes bad, check G2 voltage again with CRT Board
connected and disconnected.
There is a trick to remove an internal G2 to Focus grid short,but
in my experience this short has not been intermittent,nor did it appear
after warm-up.
This is with 'older' RCA/GE sets though
