i recently modded my atari 2600 for A/V and it works but the color is quite distorted , i can fix it somewhat moving the potentiometers around but it's still alot different , any clue what the problem might be ?

My cousin did the mod from that site for his Atari Jr. (which is pretty much the same mod) To me the color looks like crap, even after adjusting the potentiometers. Also, there is indeed some distortion and lines going through the image. It is a cheap mod, so the best picture is probably not to be expected. If i were you i'd either use a different mod or stick with RF.

this site should have information that can help you with picking a mod that is what you're looking for.

The 8bitDomain boards are great too. Shipping direct from them can be slow,but if you get one installed for you from OSG, there is rarely any delays, as all boards are kept in inventory.
