Thanks for the inputs, guys.

Seems something went astray with the old splitter.
And it may be connector related.  The modem measures
signal & returns data to the cable ISP, which is how
I measured things.  3dB for the split, plus .5dB for
insertion, @ the 1GHz return channel was what they reported.

We played with it a bit, and suddenly had -13dB on the 
back channel.  I changed out the splitter, and things got
considerably better.  Am in process of changing them ALL out,
so I know what I have.
