First of all I would like to thank very much for all e-mails and advices.
A few were trying such beverages and they were satisfied with them.
Tom...wires I have got are with very thick jacket and I hope it " prevents
 water from disturbing the line".Additionally they are twisted very tightly
so I hope there will be not too much infuence of water.
Well if I understand correctly even if moisture will change an impedance 
/of course not too much/ it will result mainly in not the perfect matching 
what will cause mainly in "slightly" weaker signals but if push pull matching 
transformer is still balanced it will still works for both directions..? 
I know its not a perfect system but I have too many houses around to
build bigger/better aerials.
In the past /hmm..30 years ago/ I was using G5RV with 300 ohm TV line
and it was very dependent of a moisture and mechanically rather not strong
so maybe its worth to try this twisted wire.
THANKS again and I let you know about results I get.
