TV sets generally have a built in degauss circuit that activates when you turn on the set. That circuit may be bad. Time to have a service shop look at it.

that is correct, auto degausse circut is controled by thermisters in the power circut, when power is first turned on, it flows through a set of thermistors to the degauseing coil, after a few seconds the degause thimester will heat up and the power will then flow to the tv power circut.
the degause thermister will remain hot with a high resistance preventing any current flow till the tv is turned off long enough for it to cool down which will lower the resistance for the power to flow through it again when power is reapplied.
