Ok Antman
It could be 1 of two things
1 your TV signal has drifted try and re-tune
2 your RF modulator inside your megadrive has given up the ghost
there are ways around using your rf lead. there is a 8 pin hole in the back of your megadrive that you can buy composite leads or rgb scart leads for. or you can make one quite cheaply

or buy a new megadrive
