One of the things that you could hope for is that the cable is connected to the floor junction box still.

You can just plug your TV directly into the cable foresaking the cable box. This is known as raw cable, so the numbers and channels that are regularly set by the box top giving say MTV channel 20 and on raw cable it may be on 16. Once you get used to the numbering convention you're good to go.

I use raw cable even though I have a cable box so that I can use the picture in a picture function.

edit: forgot to tell you to set the TV mode from ANT to CABLE if there is a cable setting, if not then you'll just get 2-13
