Look into Ecoflex. http://www.vibroplex.com/contents/en-us/d39.html
I'm using it from the gear in the shack through the wall --> Andrew Heliax to
the base of the tower---> Ecoflex up the tower.
So far, so good.
I measured some Buryflex years ago for a friend who had 100' dropped shipped to
me. It's in the storage room someplace and not in my antenna system.

I use only Amphenol 83-1SP connectors that I carefully solder myself. And I use only Amphenol adapters where required (elbows, barrels, Tees). When a male N-connector is required, I use the excellent Andros connectors.
