Need some advice.
There is a Meagadrive on ebay going really cheap but the listing says he cannot get the console to tune into his TV using the Aerial Cable. Am I right in thinking that if I switch out the Aerial Cable for a scart/RGB Cable I will solve the problem or should I avoid it.
Thanks for looking

He says he can get a bit of a picture, I think I will skip it this time its a shame as it a mint mk1 with carry case etc.

Re: Megadrive Console (PAL) not tuning in.
a bit of a picture could be one of a few things
1/ A knackered RF Cable/switch box
2/ A broken internal RF modulator (or poor solder jointing)
3/ He is using an 80`s tv where you turn the knobs to tune the channel lol (unlikely)
I have to agree with elmagicochrisg it could be an easy fix then again..,it could be worse though he could say it powers up to a `black screen` or something like that.
