            Abstract : 
The results of several surveys concerning direct-pickup interference are examined. The seriousness of the problem is emphasized. It is concluded that any cable delivery technology that is dependent on the customers´ TV or VCR for tuning capabilities, such as off-premises, multiport, or trap systems, will continue to be plagued with this problem. The only currently available solution is the set-top converter/descrambler
