Yep, every time I call for cable TV problems, the first thing the cable tech guy does is cut the ends off the cables and puts on fancy slip fit sealed connectors. (even after I tell him there's nothing wrong with the cables)
Then he swaps out the defective cable box and I'm back in biz. I'm on my 3rd PVR recorder box. It's working ok so far, Scientific Atlanta quality control stinks.
