    Is it me or does the cable reception suck in the sugar land area? Anyone else having this problem, I get Channel 2 news, a scrambled image, and some Rockets clips every now and then all at once. Even the audio fades in and out when my Sony WEGA tells me no signal. GRRRRR!!!! :mad:

    I get better reception in my car driving around town than I get through Time Warner and Im paying them $70 a month! :mad:

    I called the cable company last year, and they were able to come out and fix it for me. They said that a loose cable at the main antenna connection can give you bad reception on 51 (even though everything else is clear) because the station has such a weak signal. But he tightened the conection and my reception and sound quality really improved.

    I have to second Boki94eva's post. We were getting KPRC stronger than 51, but he replaced a cable from the main feed, after tightening every connection in the house and it made a world of difference. The problem is that we are so close to the antenna farm where Hillcroft dead ends in Missouri City. That much power and a week signal from 51 means any loose connection at all allows KPRC to get into the system as strong as 51's cable signal.
