[TowerTalk] Request for Info: Closing off PVC chase with LMR600 cables.

[john at kk9a.com]

I don't know why any acid in caulk would hurt the Times Microwave  
jacket or PVC conduit. I have been using GE Silicone II on coax for  
many many years without issues.

Greetings to the group.

    I just finished burying and pulling a lot of LMR-600-DB and where  
that come to ground I pulled them through a chase to protect them from  
the almighty weed whacker and such. The chase is gray PVC and I wanted  
to apply a bulk seal the ends to block ingress and accumulation or  
rain water or smaller critters looking to nest.

    Is there a preferred or safe sealant to close these off with?
    I assume some kind of caulk would work, but some are silicone  
based and some of those have acids (so I'm told).

    Any suggestions, guidance, or things not to do-use would be appreciated.

Thanks & 73's  Mike K9MK/5
