Here's how my 5-year-old Panny looked this morning. Is the blue gun dead? How much can I expect to pay to have it replaced? Thanks in advance.

Since the reds are not aligned either, maybe the convergence board went bad. I would think if a CRT was dead it would not show up at all.

Convergence failure. $350 parts & labor or do some research and try diy.

Thanks, hammerdwn! I'm not gonna try to do it myself because I've never done any electronics repairs, soldering, etc. My life insurance is paid up, but still...

Anyway, can you (or anyone) recommend a good repair shop in SoCal, specifically in the San Fernando Valley?

Thanks

Yellow pages, be sure to get one that will do the repair in your home. Do not let anyone take your Tv to the shop.
