    I Bought An Atari 2600

    I may have found the problem. Although the outside is in decent shape and none of the connections have rust. I opened it up looked at the bottom of the board. It looks like something might have spilled in it. There seems to be a tint over the traces or some kinda residue. The traces look like...

    I Bought An Atari 2600

    I dont think it will because the rca inputs i have are basically video1 video2 so i cant plug it in one of those because the atari is looking for channel 3. So i had to buy an rf adapter but i think i bought the wrong type. I read i need a mechanical one not a automatic one. I really dont no...

    I dont no what u mean by tune the rf but if your talking about have them adjusted to the right channel then yes. Where does the sound come from? Inside the system? If thats the case is there suppost to be a startup sound because i dont have one.

    No i never got picture out of it. The light on the atari always turned on but that is all i have right now to tell me if its working or not. I still believe my problem is getting the signal to my tv. The doesnt have sound does it? this is my first old school video game system other then nintendo.

I then read something about a certain kind of rf adapter the one i got plugs into an outlet for power and has a 3 and 4 channel swich. There is a light on the rf adapter that goes on...
