cox connectivity issue

[Major.Mikey]

??????? I quick-connect HSI on RG-59 all the time. Never had a complaint. If 
you amplify HSI the signal becomes too strong. Might that be the problem? If 
it is stick a three or four way splitter after the amp. If you can, terminate 
the unused ports (the leakage doesn't really matter so don't fret about it 
too much if you can't).
