Those were picture-tube TVs. The picture tube was almost as long as the TV screen was wide.
The CRT refers to cathode ray tube. This is the oldest of the varous TV types. More recent developments have been projection, plasma, etc.
We're talking about high voltage when we talk about the operating voltage of a cathode ray tube (CRT). The operating voltage can vary, as you can imagine. Tens of thousands of volts are not uncommon.
Televisions are measured by taking the diagonal size of the picture. On new LCD and Plasma displays, the measurement is the size of the visible picture, which is the entire LCD panel. On older CRT (tube) televisions, most sets were rated in size based upon the size of the entire Cathode Ray Tube. Usually an inch or so of tube was hidden behind the bezel (the plastic border that surrounds the tube), so the measurement never reflected the actual visible picture size. Some countries passed laws to outlaw this sales practice.
There are two main types of lights that are typically tube shaped:"neon lights" - these use mixtures of noble gases (e.g. helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon) to produce different colors. These are usually used for advertising signs for businesses.fluorescent lights or UV lights - these use mercury vapor to produce UV light (in fluorescent lights a thin coating of a fluorescent powder transforms the UV light to visible light).

A test color chart in a colour television is used to make sure the colors on your TV are showing correctly. They are used by people at home to make adjustments to the colors on their TV to make sure the picture is coming through as intended.

It shouldn't. If there is no actual power to the CRT (no picture visible) then there really can't be any degradation of the tube.
A replacement tube (if it is available) is likely going to cost almost as much as the whole television. If you need a new tube, it's time to ditch the tube TV and get a flat screen.
Monochrome generally indicates a black and white picture.
Why not!Smashing the face of the picture tube will cause an implosion.
If the deflection yoke is rotated it can cause a slanted TV picture. The deflection yoke is located on the tube neck inside the TV.
Dim picture, slow to get bright and the white part of the picture turns kind of negative looking.

panasonic? 15 years?,,,,,,,,,,,,, I am sure the tube is going out.
TV was not made until the late 40's and sold to the public in the early 50's.. They were metal, glass, a bit of plastic, wires, and had a picture tube. This was well before transistors, so people would take the tubes out of the back of the TV, test them, and replace the burned out tube.
