Hi,
I live in Portugal and i recently bought a ntsc heavy sixer.
I don't know what's happening.. the console turns on ok, The harmony cartridge menu shows up but when i start a game the image just gets full of interference or static or whatever that is.
It's strange because my TV worked just fine with ntsc games running through my PAL console (wrong colors of course but perfect image) so i think it's perfectly capable of handling ntsc signals through RF.
I'm using this COAX to RF adapter to connect it to the TV:

I'm also using a power supply adapter from a PAL console (9v polarity center +, outer -).
Do you think it's worth a try buying a ntsc power supply adapter and using it with a step-down converter?
Maybe replace it with a new rf cord?
I've read that switching between channels 2 and 3 might help but i also read that the heavy sixers don't have that swith and are locked to channel 3.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Pedro
