I have acquired a mid-90s JVC 20" TV. Quite a nice model, and I'd like
to set it up for the kids to watch their shows so I can occasionally use
the main TV to watch mine

Anyway, it's unwatchable due to a ghosting problem. This is something
I've usually associated with antennas, but there's no antenna in the set
up here.

* TV tuned to cable connection: strong ghost trailing by 1/8"
(note; any channel. Also other TV no ghost in same situation)

* TV on AV from a DVD player: strong ghost trailing by 1/8"

BUT

TV's own character generator in menus etc: beautiful, sharp edges with
no ghosting whatsoever.

Any ideas? I'm trying to figure out if this is work having repaired.

The video signal is being coupled into an input stage somewhere. Find
someone who has serviced this model before - they may be able to eyeball the
problem.
