GNU Free Documentation License How does the cable company have access to your home? Q. I understand that if you have to have something fixed in your home, the cable company accesses your home from their office. How do the installers make this possible? Do they program the cable with a code, or what? How do they control your home from their office? Asked by Tech Dude - Thu Jan 1 23:55:06 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. They don't have access to your home. The only thing they can access from their office is a digital or hd receiver. They can send a signal from their computer to your specific receiver telling it what channels you pay to receive. The cables that are run from the street to your house are not coded in any way it is only the receiver that has a chip inside of it and they know exactly what receiver you have in your house. That is it. Answered by Jayman - Fri Jan 2 00:10:15 2009 How long a TV cable should be to avoid signal loss? Q. I have subscribed to Starhub Cable TV service. Only to realise that the cable point and my TV are too far apart. To connect the two I will need a cable of at least 6 metres. The technical support told me this is not advisable because there will be a drop of signal quality. They told me to fix another new cable point instead, which cost quite a bit. Anyone connected their TV to the cable point using long cables? Is the risks really significant? Asked by The Prince - Mon Jan 7 01:30:46 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. You'll probably be fine, but it all depends on the signal level at the source. You're talking about using a cable thats about 19.6 feet long. I don't think you're going to have a problem with that. I would suggest using high-quality RG-6 type 75 Ohm coaxial cable for the job to minimize signal loss. RG-59 can become lossy at higher frequencies and longer runs. For 19.6 feet though, with RG-6, you should be fine.

Q. The cable box is still on the outside of our house but we don't have cable. Can we mount our outdoor antenna beside it and use that coaxal cable (sp?) already there to connect the two together? The question is...will the antenna work?
