I just looked at my 54542C, and noticed a bit of the shading effect if I turn my head and look at the screen at an angle. Mostly on the white areas, though - I could see bluish shading on the sides. I also noticed it with magenta lines, though not as much as the white lines.
Do you wear glasses by any chance? I noticed that if I take my glasses off, the effect goes away. I suspect it's the coatings on the lenses affecting different wavelengths of light differently. If I look at it straight, the shading also goes away.
I also noticed that the characters on mine are white, not yellow - maybe your LCD backlight is starting to go out? The backlight on my scope was dead when I got it, so I replaced it with LEDs.
