I agree with Bill (W7TI). The Davis Coax is just what it says it is on
his WEB site. I use it anyplace where I can not use hard-line.
Just make up a jumper using the Bury-Flex, put it in the ground, and
forget about it. If you wish, a spiral plastic wrap exists that will
provide some cushion and is very easy to use.
Take some loss measurements to compare once a year. I bet you will
not ever find a need to replace the coax.

Get some Davis Bury-Flex coax and forget about the fancy protection
stuff. If you're really paranoid, design the installation so you can
pull the old coax and replace it every time you start to wake up

nights
and worry about it.
