Atari 2600 Graphical "line"

[Hippytipper]

Got myself a 4 switch 2600 system. Everything looks and runs great.
Just one question. When I put a game in and turn it on, there is this small pixely line that runs vertically down the screen to the right of the game picture.
At times seems as though it's reflecting part of the in-game screen. However doesn't effect gameplay at all.

Just wondering if this is something that can be fixed, or are most of these systems just like that?

Yep that's normal,you usually didn't see the blue line on the left and the yellow line on the right back in the day due to CRT's over scanning the picture. Flat CRT's and LCD's show it thou.

It's just the graphics drawing boundary.

Ohh ok:) When I first put a game in it looked normal, then that line slowly dissolved into view. First response is I guess I kind of figured something was graphically wrong.

Thanks for the quick response! Like I said I'm not too concerned, thought I would do some quick inquiry on the issue.
