Just a thanks to all those who responded to my request for 2600 info.
The best general tip for such off the wall problems was to look for
a Sams book, which do exist for the 2600s and I assume for lots
of other beasties.  Someone sent me a set of schematics which
was all that I really needed in this case.

The fix by the way was free. A coil that keeps the video out of the 
5v supply had opened. A few turns on a ferrite bead did the trick.
