Default Electron gun

An electron gun is a part of cathode ray tube on increasing the
filament current the rate of emission of electrons from the cathode
will increase. on the other hand, by increasing the accelerating
potential on anode, the energy of electrons reaching the anode will
increase due which the electrons will strike the screen with a greater
speed.

And your point is?

WTF does that have to do with this newsgroup anyway?

You can't easily "repair" a CRT at home, though I do remember those CRT
"boosters" from the days of B&W TV. They were little autotransformers
which increased the CRT filament voltage a bit to raise the emission of
a partially depleted cathode.
