There are specific FCC requirements for signal "egress", so if you can
identify the frequency with a cable TV channel, and pin it on them,
then they are indeed required to fix it.
One reliable frequency to look for egress is around 145.25, which is the
frequency of the picture carrier of one the analog channels. If there's
egress, you'll hear a buzzy carrier here, and you can use a 2M talkie to
probe for the weak spots in their system. The most common causes are
poorly made splices, many (most?) of which are made by customers
installing their own illegal connections to the system.
