the reverse is also true. leave an unterminated coaxial cable dangling in the air and the thing acts like an antenna soaking up commercial fm/am broadcast and cellphone signals and messing up everyone’s signal on the block. cable co’s are half decent at monitoring for this and occasionally go knocking on doors.

Thank you for the link, I'm still having trouble accepting it since still sounds like a wood magnet or dikfur or something you would haze someone with. But, I'll accept it and apologize!

there's also a cable channel carrier at 145.25 MHz, which is a common 2 meter ham repeater freq, and we're legally allowed to force the cable co to fix leaky poo poo if anything interferes wtih our hamming
