eggmanfat120 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I got a colecovision recently, and only now just got around to trying it out. I thought something was wrong with it, as there was an unbearable amount of static when played on my crt. I couldn't hear any of the sound. I later went to try it on my flatscreen, and voilà, it worked perfectly; despite the resolution being less. Why did this happen, it is usually the other way around where it doesn't work on the flatscreen for these type of systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I think the base frequency is deviated, you can clean the zone around the crystal with isopropilic alcohol, and also the channel switch. Also I believe there is some fine adjust in the RF module (two pots, one for color and another for sync) but I've never attempted it.

Greg2600 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Had this happen to me, replaced the CRT and it was fine again. Prior to that I was going through a VCR to get it to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
