-- To: <towertalk@contesting.com> Dittos! Why bother to hose your coax? If it doesn't need armor, get direct burial and be done with it! Unless you provide drainage, air, or desiccant it will get wet

By the way, farm & ranch stores sell 100' coils of flexible water pipe which is cheaper and way better than garden hose for this purpose. Chuck, KZ5MM -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towerta

Ok, here are the answers. First, no, the cable was clean and dry after I zipped it out. It was still giving good service. I pulled it only because I sold the vertical antenna that it was feeding and

As I sweat through digging (with a trencher and by hand) trenches putting Commscope AVA7-50 hardline (eBay deal) and control lines from the shack to a couple of towers here I mused on whether or not

Perhaps in some conditions it can push the cables up. I had hundreds of feet of Heliax and 4"pvc buried a foot deep in Illinois with no issues. Deeper does have the advantage of making it less likely

I get why one buries water pipes below the frost line as well as house foundations, by why radio cables? Is frost heave an issue for cables if one has some slack on either line of the line? 73 Bill A
