I've done it that way for years no problems. Just be sure you seal the pipe
so that moisture and wind can not get into the shack..
I use a 90 degree elbow out side (pointed down of course.. fitted with a
home made wooden plug with a hole in it just big enough for each cable to
fit through then i seal it with silicone chalking. I also stuff the pipe
with some insulation from the inside.. it seems to keep out the any cold
drafts. good luck

I am planning to reroute my coaxial cables through a hollow brick wall,
with a plastic PVC as the entry way for this. I have for years been running
it through my windows on the shack but figured since my family was getting
special storm class windows that I wanted to reroute the cables.
Does any one see any problems with this and if so what can I see in the
changes.
