The box has only two outputs as far as I can tell, an RCA composite
video + 2 RCA for audio, or coaxial output (I assume that's what you
call RF, right)?
My PVR-150 only has one RCA input, so I could get the video but no sound.
I tried connecting the coaxial output from the STB to my TV. I got
sound but garbled video. So it appears that the STB doesn't decode
the output on the coax.

Thank you for your suggestions and references! I'll definately be in
touch with them.
Thanks again,
