Yes, and if you stay really close to a attenna you can recieve cnn on your eye's.

Is it possible for you to make a little manual about how to make this labels. I think i'm not the only one that is interestet in it.

This is high science.

Could somebody offer an alternative way to view this show. I don't want to install bittorret. I would apprisate it, because i'm very interestet in the show.

Where can i download the service manual. Can't find the pdf file.

Great room. It's a gamers dream. I've you got plans of the mame cabinet, i'm to interestet in that. I was only wondering if the 2 sticks weren't to close to each other. Looks like one has to play left handed en the other one right handed.

NTSC (National Television Standards Committee), PAL (Phase Alternating Lines) and SECAM (SEquentiel Couleur Avec Memoire) are different worldwide, generally incompatible television standards. Some short, not completely accurate information follows. what where freq/frames/scan lines ---- ----- ---------------------- NTSC US/Japan 60hz/30/525 PAL Europe 50hz/25/625 SECAM France & many others 50hz/25/625 So how does this affect Atari games? Each cartridge tells the 2600 when to generate TV line sync pulses. This means that using an NTSC cartridge in a PAL console, or vice versa, will cause synch pulses to be generated at the wrong frequency. The net effect of this is that some TVs will "roll" the picture, and may need the vertical hold control to be adjusted. Some TVs will handle the incorrect synch frequency transparently though.

Dutch to I haven't come across any NTSC games yet. But then again i haven't come across any 2600 cart this year. I've took this part of text for the atarihq site but it maybe helping you: "Can we play U.S. games on our PAL 2600 Systems and vice versa? Sure, no problem. The games are perfectly compatible and interchangable. Only colors will vary (playing AcTiVision's Tennis on a blue court is actually pretty awsome). It's your TV-Set that could cause trouble. If you have an old big television (like Deleto) it doesn't care at all. Newer TVs will cause the screen to roll when other standard games are played. If your TV has a Vertical (for PAL ppl) or a Horizontal (for NTSC ppl) Pot Holder/Meter, you can adjust this until the rolling and flashing stops. " You could also try to connect your 2600 to a VCR. Maybe you're VCR has NTSC playback over PAL.

november i'll be 30. Lookes like most of the 2600 collectors are somewhere arround or in the 30th.

Try to let the tv set search for the channel. Modern tv's offen are a little to sensitive, so the atari could also be at channel 2+ or 4-. And don't forget to slide the switch to computer. It'also could be the switch. I tryed a computer-tv switch from my old nes and the only thing i got was a realy bad picture. When i tryed the switch of a colecovision, everything was allright. You could also try to plug the atari staight to your tv without the switch. The cablesignal could also influens the signal of the atari. The only thing i don't understand is this line: "Unfortantely, none of my TV's have the old style Antenna thing" Does it mean that the tv's at your country haven't got an tuner with antenna plug? Cause over here in the Netherlands we still have the same antennaplug as was then in the 70's when the atari was on the market.
