I also wanted to point out one thing (just to be clear/pedantic)
There are several (5-6?) small (like 1/4" x 1/2") magnets glued in
random places around the yoke collar.
These are not, however, the ones I'm talking about. I'm talking about the
ones that are "cylinder magnets" in the "mmm" places below. They are
all
about 2" long.
(hard to imagine why I would stoop to ascii art in this day of digital cameras)
viewed "through" the crt from the front:
-------------------
/ mmmmmmmmmmmmm \
/ mmmmmmmmmmmmm <------ this one fell out
|mm mm|
|mm mm|
|mm --- mm|
|mm / \ mm|
|mm \ / mm|

|mm mm|

honest). I carefully glued it back together (no glue in the joints,
however) and replaced it. This helped a little but did not cure the
problem.
A physical shock strong enough to break the magnet could easily have
also reordered the magnetic domains, causing it to become less
magnetic.
