Cable TV systems have always had problems with RF leaking from and into their "closed systems."
? Years ago, I had sniffer cable truck drive by and pick out my house as a leaky house. I was not surprised that is was leaky, as I had a mishmash of cable runs over the years. I even saw the equipment in action.
The wanted to go in and change cable and connectors, for a price.? But then they told me that if I signed up for a maintenance plan
that it would be free. At that time the plan was $4 a month. The came out and put a box outside and I got the guy to run 5 cables into the attic
and down to the wall connectors. The fifth was just an extra, in case I wanted to add anything. This was some much better then me crawling in
my attic where all my splitters and connections were. Just a straight run from outside to the wall connector. I paid the $4 and after it was in tip top shape,
I cancelled the Maintenance plan.
?Now, 12 years later I have dropped cable, but have internet. The cabling is now used for my antenna.
