I'm planning to run about 70ft of conduit to service two RG213 (or Bury Flex) runs and a single Channel Master 3 conductor control wire. It will be a straight run with 90 degree sweeps at both ends.

I would go bigger if you can. The extra space makes it much easier to pull. CC Packet Cluster W0MU-1 W0MU.NET or 67.40.148.194 "A slip of the foot you may soon recover, but a slip of the tongue you m

I would go 3" if you can. Even though you plan to move, the cost difference is not that much and you should always use a larger size conduit than you ever think you will need. Plans have a way of cha

Jim, I have the same here, I used 2" and it was still a struggle to get two runs of LMR-400, Steppir and Rotator control cable through it. I think you would struggle with 1 1/2" conduit. Mike, K6BR I

The NEC has guidelines for how much wire fits in a conduit, but it is mainly concerned with heat build up. The concept is that once that is satisfied, pulling the conduit through is just a matter of

The rule of thumb is to use a conduit diameter that's twice the diameter of the cables. Your two coax runs together are 1". I don't know the diameter of Channel Master cable, but if it's close to 1/2

I'd go with 3" PVC for several reasons. It's easy to pull and it allows for expansion. It's also relatively inexpensive. Another point is you do not need to bond the sections together. Actually, if y
