How do you guys at big stations do it?
Mine is a medium-size station. I have two 230 ft runs of 7/8-in hard
line laying on the ground, then running 120 ft up the tower. There's
another run of cobbled-together coax, mostly 1/2-in, as well as control
cable for rotator and SteppIR. Everything is laying on the ground. The
ground they're laying on is my woods. :) In about five years, no issues.
The CATV-type RG6 for my two Beverages is also laying on the ground, no
issues in about 9 years.
K6XX has a much larger station up the road from me, and he does exactly
the same thing. The longest of his runs are about 800 ft, including the
run up the tower.
