Topband: Using 1/2" PVC Conduit Vs. the Critters Who Eat Coax

[on4kj]

Hello cable layers,

Dont worry to much folks. Not all brands are eaten by the critters, depends
upon the quality....... ( chimical composition of the cover ).
Lead a lot ( many  kilometers ) of cable somewhat every where. And believe
it or not, the grey stuff was eaten faster then  we could lay it ...... The
black stuff from a well defined brand is still intact after 20 years.
Thats why I never wear a grey suit ...........hi hi
