Coax Question
Hello:
Have started running cvoax from a receve-only antenna to the house.
The coax has a Polyethylene (PE) Outer jacket.
With this PE jacket, it's upposed to be buriable.
It's becoming a real job for me at my age to dig a slit trench, even a
shallow one.
But, I can easily just lay the coax on the surface, without any reql danger
of anyone
stepping on it, etc. It's in a pretty out of the way area.
I realize that burying it is undoubtedly best, but in a practical
sense, how well does a PE outer jacket stand up if just laying on the ground
?
Would be subjected, of course, to rain, and also buried in snow during the
winter.
Again, it's receive only.
Thanks,
Bob
