I’m finalizing my list of what’s needed for my tower projectand what needs to
be done either before or after the tower is up.
Routing of 4 coax and rotor cable has to be decided. Eithertrench approx. 125
ft from base of tower to house entry point where there’s asharp 90 degree turn
from behind the detached garage where the tower will be for20ft, the sharp
angle then straight to house entry point 105ft away.
Potential trouble with this route 1): 90 degree turn asmentioned and because
the neighbor’s property line is so close I can’t make ita sweeping turn.
2) Garage gutters run into n in ground PVC storm drain pipethat runs towards
the front of house in the same direction as coax and cablewould run. We’re not
sure yet where this drain system is located but trenchingfor Coax/cable PVC
could become an issue.
3) Tree roots from an oak and maple tree are in the pathabout 35 to 40ft from
the 90 degree turn.
I suggested one option that was shot down by a few and thatis run coax and
cable off tower through the length of garage (38ft) and exitopposite side of
garage then trench and bury thru PVC for about 50ft.
Any problems in routing thru garage?
Also, will regular 3” PVC piping be OK? The gray electricalgrade would be nice,
and expensive.
Should the PVC with drain holes be the right selection?
Buy solid PVC and drill my own drain holes in it?
Advice would be appreciated.
