At some point I hope to be testing a PVR with a rebuilt power board,

the only TV at the workshop is a Casio pocket TV (no scart connector -

Will a typical VCR present a UHF signal out from scart in???

Yes.


It depends, if the box output can be set as composite video (CBVS) then
yes. However, some Freeview boxes etc. output RGB which will not be
convertible by a VCR. I think you can get a modulator, or make one.

I've looked into making one myself, basically you would need a modulator
(one from an old VCR or SKY analogue box would do) a power supply for
the modulator (some are 5v, some are 12v, not much current so a basic
power supply or battery would probably do) and an IC (can't remember the
number but I can find out if you like, along with details of construction)
