I used 3 inch sch 40. I had a electrical pull snake for pulling coax and 
control lines down 150 feet of conduit without any trouble - not even pull 
soap was required.

I use 4" French drain line surrounded by gravel to let the moisture out.


I cannot imagine being able to slide coax 160 feet in 2 inch conduit.  That 
would be tough.   I've built 5 towers all in excess of 180 feet from the 
house and always used 4" and it's hard enough.
