Common causes of poor cable TV reception include:

Old o r damaged cables and connectors: Worn-out coaxial cables o r loose connections reduce signal quality.

Shared connections: Multiple apartments using the same line can cause signal degradation.

External provider issues: Problems at the service provider’s end, such as faulty transmitters.

Solutions:

Replace o r repair old coaxial cables and connectors.

Use signal boosters o r amplifiers for high-rise buildings.

Ensure proper grounding of the system to reduce interference.

Contact the service provider to check for external issues o r upgrade to digital/fiber services.
