bad box of siamese?

Recommended Posts

did you ever have a bad box of siamese? Recently did two installs and when terminating the ends I had no video. I replaced the connectors then capped one end and checked continuity. Still bad. Had to rip out all the runs I did with that box. Power was fine just not video. after ripping out cable I was tried cutting the cable in sections and check continutiy just to see if I could pinpoint the problem area but couldn't find it. Possibly just a nick in video side? I don't know. Oh well learning experience I guess.

It can happen, ive had bad runs of catv cable, it can be a manufacturing defect, ive also heard of cable where certain frequencies were simply notched out..
