RE: Line noise from tv cable?

Is your cable drop grounded? Code requires that the cable company ground the input at the service entry. They usual don't do it. I complained to Comcast and they sent out a tech who moved the drop so it entered near the electric service panel and bonded it to the electrical grounding rod - problem solved. Prior to that I was using a 75-300 adapter wired to a 300-75 adapter - both available at RS for a couple of dollars.
