It seems odd to mix a Cable simulator (attenuates high frequencies more) and what looks like a forward path equaliser (attenuates lower frequencies more). It seems to me they could have just used one normal attenuator (attenuates all frequencies).
I would get rid of the green one as it very very unlikely that it will have any effect on the service and screw the other one on the back of the equipment rather than at the wall socket. Keep the green one safe just in case it does affect things but I doubt it very much. I love the picture, a shining example of poor workmanship. As you rightly said he should have gone to the cab and lowered the signal there.

The red one (cant remember the value) was on the back of the V+.
My V+ box freezes, can take 30 seconds to 2 minutes to respond to requests sometimes, but is just ok for the majority.
Picture quality sometimes is poor, even last night on the VM channel it was suffering from slight pixelation.

You problem is probably unrelated to the attenuators. Check all connections are tight and everything is ok, if still the same call VM.
