Unfortunately, the earlier Atari systems do not work properly with the auto switch-boxes that shipped with pretty much all systems after the NES. You need either a manual switch-box or an RCA to f-jack adapter. http://www.atariage....to/connect.html

I use my Jaguar autoswitch box with my 7800 and it works fine. I do use that F-adapter thing for my 5200 - it came with the system from the guy I bought it from. The picture is excellent with that, but when I tried it with the 7800, it didn't work at all. I'll have to try it again.
Update: I bought one of those RCA to Coaxial F adapter things at Radio Shack. The output is much cleaner than the RF unit from the Jag with the 7800. It still isn't as sharp as composite from my XEGS on the same TV, but it is a huge improvement. I don't know why it didn't work before.
