I have two TV's hooked to the same cable system with a splitter. When
I change channels on the main TV the other TV's signal will sometimes
degrade. For example, when the main TV is on ch 9 and the other TV is
on ch7, everything is OK. When I change the main TV to ch4 the other
TV's signal gets grainy. Any idea how to correct this problem?

The splitter is not very good at isolating the two outputs, and in
addition, your incoming signal may not be very strong. I would head to
Radio Shack and get an amplified splitter. They are inexpensive and
should completely solve your problem.

that only happens if the main TV is a high definition set. Get rid of
it.

Also, does your computer do the same thing when you post the same
message twice?
