[kwlug-disc] OT:Cable Splitters/Rogers

[Paul Gallaway]

To test if it's the splitter, remove it, and use a female-to-female
F-connector adapter to connect your TV directly to your cable line in.
If it's the splitter, the picture should be improved. If it's
something else it shouldn't change anything. Something else could be
your cable to your TV or any cable run upstream from there per Khalid.

Canada Computers isn't terrible for cables either if they are closer
than Sayal. I don't get out of Waterloo enough ;) If you're updating
cables you want to get the RG6 type coax, not the RG59 type. Memory is
drawing a blank on the "why."
