Question by bedfordczarina: How do you hook an Atari up to a newer television?
I have an old school Atari. It comes with a cable that is a single prong on the end. I can’t change out cables because the cable is part of the console. Any guesses as to how I could hook it up to my TV? It only has the component hookups.

There are converters, you should try RadioShack.

I think I remember what you are talking about though. I had an Atari not too long ago. It was basically two wires, and at the end of each wire was a small metal fork. Which connected to older tv’s where you would hook up the bunny ears or round antennas.

There should be an adapter where you can screw in the two forks, and then you will be able to plug it into a coax cable input.
