I'm under the impression that unless I do something crazy, I'll always have a strong signal on the coax, as it's converted from optical in my garage.<br>
<br>
Though now that I've dropped the cable box, there are no analog channels to record, and the network comes straight from the ethernet port on the ONT, the coax just goes to a three-way splitter for my old HDHR and HDPrime, so the old days of splitting it for the TV, VCR, PVR-250, HDHRx2, cable modem, and cable box are long gone.<div class="HOEnZb">

The good thing is that your signal quality is probably pretty good (assuming the amp in the ONT is clean) because you don't have the long run from the cable head end to your house, which acts as a huge antenna even though they shield the hell out of it.</div>
