- I don't want to start a debate about whether this is a good idea, or which coax would be best. However, I would like some ideas about how to handle the points where the coax enters and exits the wate

- Feed the coax through the water hose, put connectors on it, submerge it and enjoy! Yuri, K3BU List Sponsored by AN Wireless: AN Wireless handles Rohn tower systems, Trylon Titan towers, coax, hardlin

- I would use Davis RF Buryflex cable and I would put it inside polypipe, the good old stuff that sprinklers are used with; but I would just put the ends much higher than the pond, and seal it. I think

- I dislike 9913 (I think that is what it was) because the stuff I have is hollow and fills with water no matter how you seal it when horizontal. I wound up using it only for vertical runs that don't

- Same here. In Florida, here's a typical 9913 failure: the coax begins to heat to a very high temperature in the afternoon sun. Then, as is customary during a summer afternoon, a cool rain develops o

- The LMR400 DB is the flooded version. Great cable. The flooding material is very sticky, but can be cleaned up with a bit of mineral spirits, and the flooding compound doesn't seem to affect the abil

- I would recommend you talk with Ed, W0SD, to get his advice. He has a 1/4 wave 160m vertical constructed of Rohn 25 base fed in a pond behind his house. He most certainly will have good ideas on the
