Re: RF cable i mono?

Someone told you wrong.

Coax is only mono IF the source is mono or when a VCR is active as the
tuner.  A VCR essentially breaks down the RF signal into its parts, audio L,
audio R, and video.  If coax is used to port the audio and video to the TV,
then the sound will be mono.  If the VCR is turned off allowing the RF to
pass through unaltered, then the sound will be stereo if the source is
stereo.
