I believe most good quality TV's go through a weak automatic deguass at powerup. So it may clear itself up over time - or you could accellerate this by doing multiple power ups and downs. If that doesn't do it you can either buy a deguassing coil (I have seen them in electronics supply catalogs) or take it to the shop & have it done ( I image it would only cost 10 -20 bucks or so.
