Below is validation script in the field where the value changes and I have radio buttons with two choices. When it is greater or equal to 1000, Choice 1 (which is yes). However, it is not changing to Choice 2 (which is no) when below 1000.

if (event.value >= 1000)
{
   this.getField("CheckBox").valueAsString == "Choice1"
} else {
   this.getField("CheckBox").valueAsString == "Choice2"
}

Your == should be single = signs and valueAsString should be value:

if (event.value >= 1000)
{
this.getField("CheckBox").value = "Choice1"
} else {
this.getField("CheckBox").value = "Choice2"
}

What is the difference between == and =?

== means is equal to. It compares 2 values and returns true or false. 2==2 returns true. = means equals. In your script you want to change the value to Choice1 or Choice2 so you want the field value to equal them.
