Antenna in the attic

I have a question for those of you who have a Antenna in the attic. My house is built and I don't see how I can drop the cable from the attic to the basement.

Anyone with ideas?

Drill a hole to the outside. Then run it down the side of the house and then back in to the basement.

I ran mine from the attic down to a bedroom closet that happens to side with my livingroom wall.

Look for cold air return or heat ducts that go to the basement and then you can route it anywhere in the house from there.

With ranch house, you can drop it down inside any interior wall without insulation, between the studs.

Drill hole in attic, and hole in basement, and fish it through with stiff wire.
