one thing about NTL cable TV is that all the data for analogue & digital TV is sent down the cable, what you actually get is determined by the package you are on. However there are some channels that are not encrypted that can be picked up by a tv tuner. Unfortunately, I don't believe there is any way to improve reception of these channels, as far as I know, what you are seeing is the best you can get.
@patrickp - my box only has an F-connector in from the wall plate & an F-connector to RF coax to the TV tuner - the only 'extra' connector is a normal 'aerial' connector for the analogue combiner I have fitted.
- presumably another example of different kit installed by different franchises, depending where you live
