Ok, we've made the transition to Comcast's new Digital version of expanded basic.
Now, the problem is some of the TV's can't tune all of the channels - especially the ones on the higher frequencies.
After much research, I believe this is a combination of low signal level from the incoming cable and multiple splitters with older wiring in the house (most of it is RG-59).
From what I can find online, even if I replace the RG-59 cable, the signal level will still be marginal and may not work for the higher channels.
Can Comcast increase the signal level coming in easily? Or would I be better off just getting an amp and installing it myself?
