Atari 2600 Jr. won't work

Hello! I just bought an Atari 2600 Jr. I usually don't watch TV and I don't have channels on it ( I usually use a Chromecast). Now, the Atari works, the light is turning on but I don't have any channels. What can I do? I tried to search for channels but of course, it won't work because I don't have any cable.

Assuming you're using an RF adapter, make sure your Atari's powered on and select the channel search function on your TV, as you did before.  BUT - search for analog channels (antenna), not cable channels.  Let your tv go through the search process.  It should find the one your Jr. is set to broadcast on, most likely channel 3.
