Hello! Im new here so go easy...
Having owned a saturn for near or over a decade now I think! I thought I would get it set back up and have a blast after browsing through this forum. On setting it up I had a hell of a time trying to get it working on my TV because I have one of those horrible RF cables and not a scart. I managed to get it to tune in, but the sound cuts in and out randomly when the saturn is turned on. Very strange problem - I have put it down to the cable. Anyone like to suggest anything different? That and the battery has gone so I dont have any memory on it. I know buying a scart cable would be rather cheap but im hoping to find a mint MK1 boxed in new condition saturn on ebay but its proving quite difficult.

Hi there, welcome to the forum!
Yep, sounds like the RF cable to me, I had almost exactly the same problem with a bad RF cable on my dreamcast, the Saturn is by far at it's best through SCART or S-Video.
Mint Mk1 PAL consoles do seem to be getting scarce, shed loads of Mk2's out there, the only reason I have a mint Mk1 is because I purchased one when Electronics Boutique were selling them off around '99 and just stuck it in my attic without ever opening it.
