It was more a point that the signal port here is different, however I think I found the issue, it is lacking the channel select switch which apparently indicates it uses VHF which isn't available in modern TVs

You need this adapter then hook it up to the TV via the coax antenna or cable port.

 

I think that won't work for me (I'm in the UK) as our cable connection is different

How are you connecting it to your TV?

Are you using a direct RCA to coax adapter?

Are you on the right channel, 3 or 4?

Are you trying a recently cleaned game or did you try a different game? Some games will give artifacts like that if the contacts are dirty.

 

Using what I'm pretty sure is a RF to coax adapter (Pictured is the cable coming out of the 2600 just to make sure it hasn't been modified) . Then using the scan function which picks up two channels, the one in the picture and a black screen.

Tried about four or five different games but will try cleaning them again

Hello there,

As the name might suggest I need some help from you fine people.

I've read the forum for a while but didn't join until I'd finally got a 2600.

I was very happy as I managed to get a nice light sixer (despite it being the dirtiest thing I've ever seen) but I'm having some problems connecting it to a new TV, I've followed all the instructions I could find but I'm just getting a weird black and white pattern on screen. Attached are pictures of the screen and board (including one before I cleaned it!)

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

P.S. The board seems different to most other examples I could find online?
