Here's a pic of the C64 circuit board, PAL version. The shiny metal box near the center with the Commodore label and part # and UK designation is the RF modulator. If you enlarge the pic you can see there are two holes already in the shielding cover to access the two inner trimpots for the purpose of fine tuning it. While it's connected to a TV and turned on, turn one with a small screwdriver to tune it in better. Only make small adjustments at a time. Be aware of static electricity. Don't zap something inside your c64.

You're using the RF output and it's set on channel 3 or 4, right? It sounds like the RF modulator has drifted out of tune so that it's not quite on either channel 3 or 4. You can probably open it up and tune it in by adjusting a little trim-pot.

Are there other collectors in your area?
Bill Brasky replied to lance_miller's topic in Classic Console Discussion
When I used to hunt in flea markets and garage sales I was really only on the lookout for Colecovision stuff, a little intv stuff, a vectrex but I never saw vectrex stuff. I passed over TONS of Atari and Nintendo stuff because I don't collect it. I didn't buy up stuff just to sell it on ebay. It makes me chuckle a bit now when I see these kiddies getting in bidding wars on ebay over NES stuff. I was knee deep in NES stuff back in the early-mid 90's. People were trying to give you the stuff just to get rid of it. -
(DEAD) 29 Non-working arcade cabs in Michigan for sale cheap
Bill Brasky replied to SRGilbert's topic in Buy, Sell, and Trade
I guess, but when you walk to work every day like I do, it seems like a bigger deal. Weird that got removed, I couldn't see anything in there that would have a problem. Anyone can flag anything, anytime for no good reason. The flagging system is abused. -
I've seen surveys where something like 90% of the DVD consumers interviewed said they NEVER watch any of the extras and don't care about them.

29 Non-working arcade cabs in Michigan for sale cheap
Bill Brasky replied to SRGilbert's topic in Arcade and Pinball
Ugh.. He wants us to pay him $35 for each of those cabs?!? He should be paying people $35 each to haul them away. There isn't one good cab in the whole bunch. -

That's actually the sequel to Antarctic Adventure. Check out this version of CPK, Super Cabbage Patch Kids. This runs on the ADAMEM emulator. I haven't tried it on any other emulator. Super_cabbage_patch_kids.zip -
Are there other collectors in your area?
Bill Brasky replied to lance_miller's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I've noticed the suburban Detroit flea markets are picked so clean that I stopped going. I ran into another collector once and he told me he just scooped a Chase the Chuckwagon off the table out front for .50 cents. I wanted to punch him in the face. Anything I passed over would be gone the next week. -
NES era Atari magazine coverage
Bill Brasky replied to Atarifever's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I recently sold a stack of old EGM's and others from the NES era 88-91 and there were a few reviews for 7800 and ST games and people writing in to complain that they don't review more Atari games. -

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/arti...70&ito=1490 Teenager buys PlayStation on eBay - and finds £43,000 in its box Last updated at 15:47pm on 18th July 2007 Here's your Playstation, keep the £40,000 change Police were today trying to trace the person who sent £43,000-worth of euros to a teenager who bid for a PlayStation on eBay. The box of cash arrived unexpectedly at the 16-year-old's home in Norfolk, in a package also containing the games console, police said. The youngster was left "shocked and stunned" when he opened the box and found 65,400 in euro notes inside. The boy immediately told his parents who alerted police and handed the money to detectives. Police believe the money might be the proceeds of a crime and are holding the cash while they investigate where it came from. But if the rightful owner is not found, the boy's family could potentially apply to keep it under the Police Property Act. The cash was found on March 20 this year, but details have only just been released by police. It is believed the Sony PS2 console was supplied by a British seller on the highly popular auction site. Officers were granted an order by Norwich magistrates on 22 June to hold on the cash for three months under the Proceeds of Crime Act. Norfolk Police spokesman Jon Smith said: "Our economic crime unit is looking into the audit trail to establish where this money came from. "It is a live inquiry at the moment and I cannot say too much, but nobody has been arrested. "The boy discovered this large amount of cash when he opened the box containing the console. To say that he was surprised is a bit of an understatement. He was shocked and stunned. "He was supposed to receive the console and two games - but the games were missing and he got this money instead. "His parents were immediately worried about where it had come from and contacted us. With that amount of money arriving in the post, there are concerns that it might have involved criminal activity. "The magistrates granted us an order allowing us to hold on to the money and make inquiries about where it came from." Mr Smith confirmed that the box containing the PlayStation appeared to be "slightly undone" when the boy received it. He said officers had to return to court on 22 September if they wanted to seek a new order to hold on to the money. Mr Smith added: "If we find the rightful owner of the money and they have a legitimate reason for having it, then the money will be returned to them. If it is found to be the proceeds of crime then the courts will be able to seize the cash for public funds. "However, if the ownership cannot be ascertained then this boy's family could potentially apply to keep it under the Police Property Act." Mr Smith said the boy and his parents did not want to be identified because of fear of reprisals. He added: "They want to keep as low a profile as possible. They are a bit concerned about this amount of money turning up on their doorstep." A spokesman for eBay said: "We have a really good relationship with the police and always assist in their inquiries. "We know eBay is a great place to pick up a bargain although, in this case, we agree that the contents of the parcel were somewhat unusual and we will assist with any inquiries police may wish to make."

FS: 6 Dreamcast games left, good ones, PRICES LOWERED
Bill Brasky replied to Bill Brasky's topic in Buy, Sell, and Trade
Mr. Driller was extremely hard to find new or used, here. I'm not just talking about now, I'm talking about even back when Best Buy, Circuit City, EB, Gamestop, Kmart, Wal Mart, TRU and Sears were all carrying Dreamcasts and games on their shelves. I looked at all of them and none of them had a single copy of the game for sale. It may have been better distributed in other parts of the country but ebay prices don't reflect this. -
RARE ATARI JAGUAR SYSTEM CASE "BLOCKBUSTER RENTAL CASE"
Bill Brasky replied to retrofan98's topic in Atari Jaguar
That's nicer than the Virtual Boy cases they used. Those just had a sticker on the case, no molded logo. No Blockbusters around me rented Jags or Jag games. -
I like all the Epyx titles. Even though they were first generation titles, it's clear they really had a great understanding of the system. Their games are so much more slick and polished than a lot of later releases from Atari. They were such a great game company. It makes me sad they went out of business. That would've been awesome if they could've stuck around to port more of their games to the lynx. Jumpman and Jumpan junior would be perfect for a portable system like the lynx.

I recall doing quadruple 360's and then a few times hitting a super high jump and doing a bunch of 360's and it just said "WOAH!". I don't even know how many it takes to get a 'WOAH', more than 4 obviously. Is it possible to do 6,7,8,9? Sometimes you can get so high off a wave, the wave disappears off the bottom of the screen.

IYO, which one is the most overrated Lynx game?
Bill Brasky replied to Damon Plus's topic in Atari Lynx
I'm going to second Battlewheels. It's great that they give you all the options to customize your car and get out on foot but it's a bad game for a portable game system with a small screen. There's just way too much going on screen and it gets all super-blocky and pixellated. I can't tell what's going on a lot of the time or which way I'm facing or what I'm even looking at. It would've been much more suited to a home system. Games that work well on handhelds are simpler like Pac Man and Tetris. BW was way too ambitious for the platform it was on. -

Top 5 Vector Games Of All Time
Bill Brasky replied to A Sprite's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Just to be clear, we're also NOT referring to the 1992 Data East pinball machine called Star Wars, nor are we referring to the 1997 Sega pinball machine called Star Wars Trilogy but only says Star Wars on it's cabinet and backglass. -
Having only been a buyer on Ebay, I have to ask: Why would Ebay prohibit auctions on "prototypes"? tjb Who knows. They are weirdly selective about which systems auctions they interfere with. They'll shut down every 2600 proto auction but never do anything to a TI-99 proto auction. You'll never get an answer from ebay as to why.

South-American ColecoVision games?
