Thought I would give an update on solving my snowy cable connection to the main TV. The splitters for cable and satellite were both located behind the fabric panel above the entertainment center where the surround sound speakers are located. Each has a 4 way splitter, utilizing 1 input and 3 outputs. Each output runs to the main tv, garage tv, and tv hookup in basement storage. The coax going from the cable/antenna splitter to the main tv had a couple of strands of the shielding touching the center copper core wire. Cleaned these out with a sharp knife tip. This improved the connection, but still pixelated some. Replaced the coax from the wall plate to the main TV with coax cable that had a thicker center core wire. The cable I had used was a packaged coax cable from Home Depot. I replaced it with one I had that was made by cable company. It had a thicker core wire. Viola!! Perfect picture on cable and antenna. BTW, I had previously tightened every coax connection at the UDC, the antenna booster plate, both splitters at entertainment center, and all wall plates. None of them were tight. The antenna connection worked fine before this fix, I guess because it runs in a different frequency than the cable frequencies. My buddy and I worked through this when we got down to the Rolex 24 in Daytona, before the event began. Such a joy to have perfect cable signal at the main tv, and all other tv's. A dealership would have never spent the time to resolve this. If you want it done right, do it yourself!!
