Well, I have 550 ft of LMR-600DB (flooding compound) - Part is laid on the
ground along a fence, part is buried about 10-12 inches down, about 50 ft
goes through 2in  buried (8-10 in) PVC (through a rocky area), and about 20
ft is in 2in PVC "arched" over a small stream that essentailly covers it
when the spring rains come.  I also have another run of about 60 ft of
Bury-Flex that's directly buried about 12 inches.  I'll let you know where
the weak link is someday.  2 years and counting now...
