Does World Box 2.0 have RF remote control capability

I'm just checking to see if the World Box 2.0 has RF remote capability. I just read a review that says it doesn't but I've seen other sites on the internet that says it does. I live in the Los Angeles Spectrum service area .

I'm not clear on what you mean by a 3rd party remote. The URC 1160 remotes is provided with World Box STBs that run New Spectrum Guide. They are manufactured for Spectrum by Universal Electronics. More information here https://www.spectrum.net/support/remote/spectrum-guide-remote

Welcome to the forums. We have Spectrum model 210-H DVRs with RF remotes, specifically the URC 1160 series https://www.urcsupport.com/urc_product/charter-spectr

I don't have a 3rd party remote, but it will work with the included remote that comes with the World Box via RF, correct?

Ah, okay. That's the remote that comes with the World Box. URC (Universal Remote Control) is a separate company unrelated to Spectrum that makes remotes so I thought it was one of their standalone products that happens to work with the World Box. I'd like to put the cable box in a closet so RF is the only way I can get it to work in that location.
