  Can anybody tell me what I might try?Looks like you need a new CRT or new TV..... 
 Reasons are:...
 
  I can not degauss it completely with my (professional) coil. Unless it's a dinky little coil you are using ....
 Your "proffessional" coil should have taken out the impurity.....
 The "Proffessional" coil I use has about 10 times the strength the built in has OR ever will have....
 
 
 
  It's not a detached shadow mask, as I can:It takes one helluva an effort to "detach" a shadow mask.... Usually when you have a "detached" shadow mask , the CRT is broken....
 Your reasons #1 & #2 are meaningless for this problem....
 
 I suspect that somewhere along the line that that TV was dropped....
 What you describe is a "Warped" shadow mask....
 It is NOT  repairable....
 
 
 
  My theory is (ahem...) that when the thermistor blew, a etc, etc.... Nice try....I don't want to embarrass you by blowing big holes in your theory....
  .... Let's just say ...Nice try....
  .... 
 
 Replaceing the thermistor is a waste of time & money.....
 Will NOT solve your problem....
  ... 
 Sorry for the bad news.....
  ..... 
 
 Good Luck.....
