To avoid the eventual rusting of steel wool, and still keep out the
critters, I stuff my conduit both ends with a couple of the copper-clad pot
scrubber things you get in the supermarket. Jerry K3BZ

Great idea! I have successfully used pvc pipe with 90 elbow for just
a couple of cables, but the 4" pipe gives "growth" and we all know that
another feedline will be needed sooner or later!
After running the cables, stuff the conduit with a ball of steel wool. The
critters will not munch through it and will have to stay outside!

4" dryer vent is my favorite. Cost, about $3. Keeps water out: Yes. Will
pass any number of standard coaxial and rotor cables, from one to about 20:
Yes. Builder already has hole saw that size to make installation in about
30 seconds: Yes.
