Yes, a loose cable actually could cause those problems, as well as others. I was dealing with a large variety of electronics problems in my last car. They included the problem you described. When I finally took it to the shop, the battery post itself was very loose. They tightened it back up, it took about 2 minutes, and all of my car's problems were solved.Check your antenna connections.
