no its had the green tint since I got it (its also a bit dark), in the early 90's (for really cheap, it was my first color monitor for my then EGA machine) no matter what cable I stick on it or signal into it

I dont have the model number on hand, the monitor is at my parents house (found it online JC-1401P3A), but here is a pic from google of what it looks like

, and mine has a date of 1985

on the back there is a series of piano style dip switches so you can set different signal attributes for the expected incoming signal, an Atari style toggle switch to flip from TTL to RGB and a female 9 pin connector

on top there is a little flip up door which is your usual full set of screen adjustments and a couple switches I cant remember what they do

It is the first monitor to carry the Multisync name from NEC, its heavy as hell and runs hot

currently it still works fine but I need to take it apart and blow it out (its been on a workbench in my parents garage for a decade) and do the usual inspection
