gbrown, that mod was what I was attempting when I discovered I have a bad coax. While waiting to get that fixed, I have also been running my Dish antenna coax through the kitchen window. The problem I have with that is I have to slightly open the screen to push the cable through and regularly have the little cheap snaps that secure the screen falling off and disappearing when I open the screen.
