I'm getting ready to write a scathing letter to my cable television company.

The problem is "ghost" images on network channels, when viewed through the cable 
connection.   After talking to the company, they explain that the downlink
site is miles from my house, and local signals overpower the cable carried
signals.  My suspicion is that this is indicative of poor shielding on their
part; Isn't coax awfully close to a faraday cage?  It also seems that they
could move local channels to another freq on the cable, or boost signal
levels at diffrent points in the city.   They say I should "just connect the
antenne" to watch local channels, a wholly unacceptable answer, especially
during unattended videotaping.

Am I reasonable in my irritation?  Are there other solutions I could suggest?
Is there some minimum quality of service they are required (by whom?) to
provide? Should I wrap my house in tin foil :) ?
