That sounds like an Admiral CRT. Motorola at one point made a deal to buy Admiral CRTs for some Moto sets. The engineers at Moto were all grumbling predictions that we would be eating a lot of warranty costs on those. Don't know what Admiral's problems were (poor evacuation? dirt?) but they were the first to offer extended color CRT warranties with their sets (2 years) and that really wasn't enough.
