I have a Sears Super Pong w/ no switch box. Using ac adapter for power. I connected the unit to my tv with a "phono-to-F" adapter purchased at Radio Shack (in place of switch box). I believe this is correct, but if not, please advise. Cable coming out of unit is male RCA. Channel switch set to 4. Local tv broadcasts on 4, but right now I can't select 3 on my tv (have to buy new remote - tv has autosearch function to access broadcasting channels only).
When I connect then tune to 4, I get sound but no video.
Any ideas on whether it's the wrong adapter or just that I need to access channel 3? Thanks! :?:

Sounds like you are connecting properly. Try it with another TV. Also are you using the proper Atari Pong power cube?

Hey guys. I'm about to purchase my 1st pong console and I was wondering if anyone out there came up with a way to use RCA jacks with it. It would just be cool to be able to hook it up to the front of the TV and start playing.

Can anyone post the absolute best methods for connecting to modern TVs? Thanx for any info.
