Good Morning and Merry Christmas to all the brave souls defying their XYLs
to answer this request.
I have installed 105 feet of 4 inch PVC from my shack to the tower. My
question has to do with running Andrews ½ inch Heliax through the conduit.
How flexible or inflexible is the Heliax? I have no experience in Heliax
and trying to make a decision whether to use it or LMR-400.
I recently pulled two runs of 7/8" Heliax through 100' of 4" PVC without
difficulty, so 1/2" should be a piece of cake, as long as you use sweep
90s at the ends. My run had a 30º bend in the middle, and sweeps at each
end.
