    Josh,

    You’ve got to isolate the issue. I’d start where Mikinho suggests and that is with your cabling as that is the most likely cause. Remove any unnecessary splits and terminate any unused splitter ports. Check all of your cabling. [/quote]

    Already did that, I do this sort of thing for a living, so I know how RF works, how bad splitters are, and what kind of line loss/attenuation you get.

    I’ve got all bran new RG6QS coax, terminations, and only two splitters in my whole setup (see attached diagram above)

    I know for a fact its not a signal issue as AGAIN, CBS works 100% perfect when the HD HR is removed from the system, as the HD HR was setup for ATSC and didn’t touch my cable tv coax in any part.

    So again CBS works 100% perfect with no issues when HD HR is removed from the setup, but once its hooked back up, all hell breaks loose.
