Rick, Might the filtering of the 60Hz out of the power supplies be poor and worse as the CRTs warm up? Remember, they're cold when you move them elsewhere for a test.
Alternatively, might the 60Hz fluorescent lighting falling on these monitors interact differently with the screen refreshing than on other monitors in such a way as to cause visual effects? Just thoughts. Look for the simple solutions before you blame the Martians.
