I got my Oddessy 1 to work. I had to clean the

wiggle it a bit until the TV went black. Don't expect anything really
spectacular to appear on the screen. It will just be black with a few
white dots (an maybe a number?). It's been a while since I used it.
Isn't there an adjustment knob for different size TV's on the deck so
you don't lose the dot? I can dig it up and check exactly what you
should see when you get the cartridge in correctly.
So far I'm not getting any signal whatsoever. Even a black screen would
be a success at this point.
