    Maybe getting a better booster instead of more boosters will help. Or a booster with 4 outputs.
    Becareful with some of these (boosters in general), I've had some that when put in has made the picture worst.

    One sure way to find out is to try it which is what you will have to do anyway as I reckon it will be a case of trial and error until you get the best results.

    I had this same problem.. i do indeed think that the problem lies with the cable itself..if i had it today i would proberly try a high grade sat coax.. as i think normal tv coax is too weak and looses allot of the signal through its thin weak wires.. its the same when using tv coax plugged into the cable connection outside to the cable box.. you will loose channels.. dont belive me ask channel man he has that setup
