My appartment complex recently rewired their cable TV, so that each appartment has a seperate line, instead of a tap on a common line. Naturally, the complex has stopped providing the previously 'free' service. I have not subscribed to cable. My question is this: I have noticed substantial leakage from the surrounding cable, such that I can see 1 or 2 'cable' channels faintly via my TV antenna. Is there any way to boost this leakage signal so that I can 'receive' cable channels off of my neighbors' leakage? David Hinnant N.C.
