Is BuryFlex still a really good way to put the juice to a  couple
of OptiBeams up at 70+ feet?  Getting close to my  installation
time.  Might have to run the stuff 90 feet underground to  satisfy a good 
neighbor.

On the side, thanks for all the help on QSL design that came  in
off site.

A better and cheaper way to go is to use 1/2 inch Heliax.  A used piece for a 
short run like yours including connectors could probably be had for $50 or 
less in the tailgating section.  The bonus is it's low loss and other than 
kinking it, is pretty much indestructible.
