lager1138 Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 I am in the US and have a pal 2600. My computer has a pal tuner in it and I cobbled together a makeshift temporary cable to make sure everything works. It does but is is ugly and not durable. I am looking to buy a pal a/b box for the 2600 as the cable end on the console is of a slightly wrong size to fit into my ntsc style a/b box. If you have a switch for sale let me know or if you know of an end adapter that will convert the pal "rca" plug to the US ntsc plug. My console is in like new condition and I do not want to replace the end by cutting it off. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susuwatari Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 9 out of 10 times, you can safely replace that cable by openng the 2600. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 In a PAL console, that's 10 out of 10 times. Just take the screws out, open the 2600 and you'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lager1138 Posted February 20, 2004 Author Share Posted February 20, 2004 Thanks, I'm going to crack it open right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lager1138 Posted February 21, 2004 Author Share Posted February 21, 2004 Yup, the cable went right in. Now I have found out that I have a busted (shorted out) switch box. Oh well, those are cheap to buy. Thanks again for the tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
