Can't see that myself, can you explain why a set that hasn't been
moved or had any external magnetic fields applied since last use be
cured by a degauss?

I go for an ageing component in the drive to the red gun or the red
gun has just got tired. If the fault clears suddenly rather than
slowly the set may respond to "impact maintenace" when it exhibits the
fault. ie give the set a thump.

BTW -red actually makes the image cyan, -blue yellow, and -green
magenta. If the fault really is green then it's either +green or -red
and -blue...
