How do you hook up the 5200 to today's TVs?

I have a 3 year old Sony Grand Vega TV and I cant get my Atari on the screen. I have the Atari hooked into the computer connection on the switch box and a coaxial TV cable running from the 750OHM connection on the switch box to the UHF/VHF connection on the TV. Seems like the right way to do it but can't get contact. Maybe I don't have the right setting on the TV even though I think I've tried them all. I don't know what else to do? Any ideas?

And then the real fun begins. :)

 

So the manual change of channel was to blame? I've seen TVs that have RCA/S-Vid jacks but no Coaxial and was beginning to think that was your case based on the thread title. Nice to know you're one step further along!
