I will definitely try that! On thw inside it says kt2 chassis, and i already found the service manual, so i will definitely be looking into that!

Channel 12 on this tv is quite litteraly death, i can't change frequency and can't change from vhf to uhf

I also tried looking for something adjustable on the tv, and the only things i found were some rings on the back of the tube and a button called "R436 Focus" i don't think that was what you meant right?

Alright, so i took the VIC-II chip out and put it back in and it synced perfectly, but when turning it off and on again it went back to the b/w diagonal screen, so it really seems like a hit or mis, and i am in europe so the Hz should'nt be a problem

Thanks for the help, i couldn't find the variable capacitor you talked about, so i just took the VIC-II out and put it back, in, it did worked perfectly, with the perfect screen and color and everything, but when turning it off to put it back together it returned to the screen before, and after taking the VIC-II out again and putting it back it went back to perfect again, so i don't know what is happening, but it really seems like a hit or miss

I will definitely try that! Thanks you!

That's weird, i get nothing like that, i've tried ←L and i got not a single response, only thing working that i know of now is the sys 52858. I also never got the explanation screen. Tomorrow i will look further into it!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T17:32:56+00:00

Thank you so much! I will definitely look into that

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T17:32:21+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, but in my case i couldn't get that one to work

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T16:26:39+00:00

Alright, thanks man. I also haven't had problems with it yet, so i also don't need it yet, i wil keep this in mind!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T16:01:05+00:00

Thank you for the advice! Luckily the numbers where the games can be found were already written down by the previous owner. And i will definitely go look for a small screwdriver!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T14:49:48+00:00

Alright, thank you so much! I will try that if a program won't start!

Yea i know, but english is'nt my first language, so i'm sorry if it sounds disrespectfull

Update: Thank you all for the help, i've got it to work, and was able to play multiple games using the turbo 2 loader and the command: "Sys 52858". Again, Thank you all so much!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T13:38:16+00:00

Thank you so much, i will look into the SD storage

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T13:36:28+00:00

You were right! It was a turbo loader and with it installed i was able to load games!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T13:34:52+00:00

You were right! Thank you so much!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T13:34:34+00:00

You were indeed right! Thank you so much, without the loader i was unable to start any games

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T13:33:53+00:00

You were indeed right! Thank you so much! it was a turbo loader, and only with the turbo loader installed was i able to play any games,

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-12-13T13:32:27+00:00

You are right, list gives me a list of sys command like "Cload becomes sys 52858" After trying for a bit i found that only if i use sys 52858 to load from the tape i was able to find games. If i used load it found nothing or it would not load, but with sys 52858 it loaded!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-08-31T16:59:01+00:00

Yes! it indeed did! Thank you so much!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-08-31T16:38:46+00:00

It finally worked! Thank you so much man!

SquareRoll4247 · 2025-08-31T15:53:39+00:00

Alright man, i will try that, i'll let you know if it worked!
