From inside I see the metal reflecting from my torch.

So I've found the hole, now it's a matter of facing it upwards to get it inside. I have a longer bendier piece of metal and will try that too.

Hopefully will get it done today but I suspect probably not...

@jb66 that may turn out to be true (probably with my luck) but can't hurt to try.... Fingers crossed

I'll keep you updated.

Many thanks

Are you using waterproof/weatherproof coax ?
