I don't think so. I am assuming they probably didn't install some connectors correctly. Unless they are using some extremely crappy gear the RF portions of all half decent repeaters are shielded very well. Unless they modified the repeater leaving some shielding off the connectors are the most likely source. I guess there could also be punctures or some such in the coax as well.
