Hi Todd,
Use a "T" connector at various points and fill it with bronze wool. This
will allow for drainage. In Florida with the high water table that is always
a possibility but all that will happen unless you bury the PVC at 4 feet
which is unlikely.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Buried Pvc For Coax Run
> I have seen in many previous posts about buried PVC for coax runs, and
that some people have drilled holes in the bottom of the PVC to allow for
drainage for any kind of condensation within the pipe. My question is
whether this would allow for water to seep in under conditons of heavy rains
where the ground is saturated. I would think this would happen even if you
put rocks at the bottom of the trench to allow for some water to drain. If
you have any input on this I would appreciate it.
