Hay Sues Xtay, so now you are a Cable TV xpert and installer too? A doctorate of spin will not qualify you to be my tool box caddy. <g>

<causes the TV to snow and the modem light to blink.>

You are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. The truck will roll when needed but it is a given that soon many of the truck rolls will be unnecessary. If mankind can go to the moon land and return 20 years ago, he ought to be able to eliminate a good deal if not most of the truck rolls for an @home installation to an existing cable TV installation. I do admit that any install will be difficult for a certain number of people. Actually, the install is not very technical at all. It is a very simple problem.

Simple diagrams and instructions can be provided on how to install the cable and splitter(s) as required. In addition, a dirt cheap, pass / fail, cable tester could be mfred and provided with the install kit (if this worries you or is a problem). If the tester cost more than 10 bucks it could be sent back to the kit packaging facility in a prepaid mailer.
