Does Japan use PAL? You may need some sort of converter.

As I recall, it's somewhere around channel 13 on a old tuner. You'd
need a dial tuner, not digital. With a dial you can fine tune around a
channel's specific band.

An AV mod would be your best bet. How to do that, not sure.

Let me guess, you are trying to run the Family Basic set?
