Don't bury it 6 inches deep because two years from now you will have to
do it all over again. The cable guys don't care how long it lasts
because they get paid to fix it. A Ditchwich is what you need. Rent one
and cut a trench at least a foot deep (or hire some local yokels to do
it for $80). Put in a 1" PVC conduit with a pull string. Run two RG6
coax and a couple of CAT-6 lines.

Hi,

Have to run about 40 feet or so of coax wire to a receiving antenna in my
backyard.

Wish to bury it, probably not more than a foot to two feet deep should do
it.

Other than using a square tipped shovel (or forcing my kid to do it), was
wondering if anyone has any "clever" ideas
on other possible ways of digging this very narrow (slit type) of trench ?

Getting on inyears now, and it sounds like a lot of work.
Is there some tool other than the shovel that I might rent, or... ?

Thanks,
B.
