[QUOTE="DanB, post: 2840156, member: 237"] I ended up running new coax from the antenna I installed in the attic to the two TVs. I already had an existing coax ran to the TV in the bedroom from the outside wall. I cut this off just below the soffit and ran a new coax to it from inside the attic. I had to drill the soffit and install one of the grommets from Lowes in the hold. The existing coax that ran to the TV is what the cable internet is going through to the modem. I left that and ran a new line from the attic to the outside wall. I ran the coax down the brick and drilled a hole through the wall. This was measure twice, drill once move. In my attic I installed a simple digital antenna with amplifier. I had to run an extension cord to the plug for the amp. After the amp I put a splitter on and ran my two runs of coax. Druryj: you don't live that far from me. If you are wanting to run your own coax lines. I have the tools to properly install the cable ends. Feel free to borrow them if you want. [/QUOTE]
