Looks amazing! Well done!

Yes, that would be great! I am also interested in one, please

Please, put me down for one, as well. Thanks!

Thank you for the info, very much appreciated!

Hello, is it still possible to order 1x translucent console and 2x cartridge shells, please? Many thanks!

I am looking to buy a (preferably brand new) JagLink 2 for the Atari Jaguar. PM me in case you have something for me. Thanks!

Thank you for the reply. Yes, I need a JagLink 2. I couldn't find one on eBay. I will check on AtariAge's marketplace. Thanks again!

Hello, Does anyone know where can I buy one of these peripherals? AtariAge store used to stock them a few weeks ago but it is not available anymore there. Is JagLink 2 going to be made available for sale again in the AtariAge store? Thanks!

Just caught up on store orders, going to work on this today. ..Al Albert can I still order the cart? Thank you in advance!

Hi, yup, tuning the inductor solved the sound problem. Thanks a lot!! Best regards, Yannis

Yup, that's your problem right there. That's good. It means your Atari is almost certainly fine. You do however need to open it up and twiddle the correct pot - that's the only difference between PAL-B and PAL-I. [Edit: changed to say the correct pot! Not the Chroma one!!] Hello, thanks for the reply. I didn't notice any other pot in the motherboard. The chroma one was near the on/off power switch. Could you please indicate where is the other pot? Could it be under the top shielding? If yes, how can I remove the shielding? Best regards, Yannis

Hello again, I forgot to mention that I bought this Atari 2600 from UK through Ebay and at the back label PAL-I is printed. Currently, I am trying to use the same Atari on a Greek PAL TV however I am not sure if it is PAL-I or not. I also found the following information in Wikipedia: On RF (i.e via a Modulator or TV Aerial) the difference between I, D/H and B/G is audio. These use different audio subcarriers, so with mismatch on Modulator Settings or an imported TV there will be perfectly normal Colour Video, but possibly no audio. Could this be the cause of the problem (i.e. not being able to hear any sound apart from interference)? Is there any workaround? Thank you in advance for your time. Regards, Yannis

I don't have a picture to hand..... but if it's the later version, you won't be able to miss it (there aren't many tall-standing red pillars on the board ). If it's the older version it's still fairly obvious as it's quite large and turnable. Be warned that some pots are glued, though, so you might need to remove the glue first. I don't think this one usually is, though. If you're in doubt take a photo of your main board and we'll photoshop an arrow onto it for you. Hi, I finally opened up my Atari 2600 and tuned the chroma pot. Unfortunately, that didn't make any difference in the sound quality. Varying the pot's position changes the picture quality though (i.e. the colours). Instead of sound I am getting a constant hiss of interference Any ideas? Regards, Yannis

No, whatever you do don't get an RCA to F-connector. That'd be pretty pointless on a UK TV. On all but the earliest VCS machines in the UK, the connector is a standard aerial lead, you can just bypass the switchbox directly. One very early VCS I have has a phono connector and matching switchbox, the rest are all normal co-ax. The knob is a pot, yes, (it's short for potentiometer). It may make the picture better because it changes the position of the sound signal relative to the video signal. If your sound signal is too close to your picture signal you'll get interference on both. How good is your picture quality? If it's poor, you might just need a signal booster (£10-£15 from Argos kind of thing). Thanks both of you for your replies. Yes, the connector is a standard aerial lead which I connect directly from the Atari to my PAL TV. The picture quality seems ok to me, it's just the sound. I get absolutely no sound, just constant interference. By the way, do you have a picture showing the location of that pot I need to adjust? Would it be possible to upload it here for me to see? Thank you in advance for your time. Best regards, Yannis
