That's what I was thinking, he's testing situations of too much gain and not enough gain.

Perhaps that RCA branded amplified booster splitter (linked to by tclearinghouse) working alone without the CM-7777 will be just the right amount of gain.

Reminds me of an old childhood story, Goldilocks and the three bears, gotta have your porridge at just the right temperature.

Can you take a photo of your current splitter, or at least list the numbers labeled on it?

I went through a couple before I found the right one for me, at first tried reusing the old one from the cable company but it was all the wrong frequencies.
