    You ought to be getting very good reception using that cable. Compression fittings, though, can be difficult to fit correctly and, as you will be using only the braid for signal gathering, it’s possible that you’ve got a bad connection in one of the plugs. I suppose you’ve already checked the cable for end to end continuity? For preference, I’d use a soldered plug like the Cleqee P7001 every time over compression or crimp types, both of which have little mechanical strength and need proper weather protection if used outdoors.
