My atari keeps disconnecting

Hey guy i recently purchased an atari that showed nothing but static. i later on played around with it and noticed when i pull up slightly, it shows some connection. Then i changed the power adapter and it started working but showing black and white. Then to fix that problem i switched it to channel 3 and perfect. It all works fine except the power jack head must be plugged in specifically at an angle to work otherwise shows static or does not display properly/makes weird sounds.

Im using a newer tv is that the problem, or maybe get a RCA to F adapter or try another power adapter? ANY SUGGESTIONS? :)

Zang, "power jack head must be plugged in specifically at an angle" sounds like you are running into a worn out jack and dry solder joints. Use this teardown to get to your circuit board and take a look at all the solder connections etc. The power jack is still available at places like this as well as many others. You can always check with digikey.com or Mouser.com and have them match you up. The static can be caused by the power jack, so start with that.

Hey yea you are right, its the power jack. Would i be able to just get a normal power jack for another electronic and get a professional to replace it? would it work? im a beginner haha

Sure you can. This is actually a great project for a beginner. The board is big enough and it is a through-the-hole component. Spend the couple of $ and buy one. Then check youtube for a couple of great soldering videos.
