George, Two questions: Did the unit you plugged into the back of the TV connect to audio out jacks? Where did you hook something up to on the Victor Stream, the earphone plug?

I also purchased a transmitter that permits my Victor reader stream to be played through the FM radio in the car, don't remember the price but wasn't nearly as much as the TV head set. HTH, George R.
