I need to properly ground everything because the only thing grounded currently is the coax and that's in a box on the side of the house where I have a splitter to send feeds to 2 rooms. (Leftovers from TWC)
The other splitter is in the attic for the other 3 rooms...
It is probably OK to use leftover coax, but anything else might introduce a problem. I'm wondering what exactly is connected to what in your antenna system? Is it like this:

Code:
ANT > 7777 > coax > grounding > coax > power > 3410 > splitters > TVs
                      block           inserter
or is it like this:
Code:
ANT > 7777 > coax > grounding > coax > splitter > power > 3410 > splitters >      
                      block                      inserter
I'm confused by your description.

KCAL real channel 9, NM 6.4 dB, weak signal on RCA and pixilation
KNBC real channel 36, NM -10.2 dB, strong stable signal
KABC, real channel 7, NM 8.6 dB, weak signal on RCA with pixilation and dropout

Are KTTV Fox 11 and KCOP MyN 13 affected the same way that KCAL and KABC are affected?
