Thanks Joe,
I will call Steve. I have talked to him before and he is very helpful. I
know the stuff is fine under water -- I just don't know about this
application!

Larry,
I am running it in 4" PVC that gets flooded. I called Davis and talked with
their tech support. They told me there was no problem in standing water. I
would call them about the freeze/thaw cycle. They are very helpful. Best
to get the info right from the "horses mouth".

Subject: [TowerTalk] Buring Bury-Flex
Hi all,
I am running Davis Bury-Flex out to a new 40M vertical in my back yard.
(Maine coast.) As it is going across gravel walkways and near garden beds,
and will not be that far below ground level, I am worried about it getting
cut or nicked in the future from yard work, etc.
My plan is to use 1" sched 40 PVC conduit - the gray stuff - for protection.
(I will not be adding additional coax, wires, etc., ever, so this should be
big enough.)
My Concern: the conduit will obviously become full of water - will freeze
cycles and the expansion of ice inside the conduit compress and therefore
damage the Bury-Flex in any way?
