Forgot to mention that my cable was pinched at one point too—seriously crimped my reception. If your cable is pinched, that could be the problem. All I had to do was get the cable in the right orientation, but with my 14" PB, that is a pretty easy job. Compared to my old Clamshell, this Pismo is a dream to work inside. I hear the new MacBooks are even better, though the fact that everything is basically owner-proofed is kind of irritating.
