I just bought an Atari 800XL on ebay. I hooked it up to my TV using the same switch box I use on my 2600. I powered it up trying a couple of different cartridges and got the same result in each case. The screen is basically gray with a few white lines accross it, and I get a buzzing noise. No picture. Any ideas? It seems like it wants to work, but nothing is getting to the TV. I'm using the RCA cable that came with it that has a small black box a few inches from the computer end of the connection. Any help would be appreciated.
