Hams will do anything.  I was considering the same thing at my cottage, but the last time I checked the price of PVC pipe,....OUCH.  That would easily in the $100s of dollars for any substantial length and a lot of work sealing the PVC.  I had thought about running coax underground to the "antenna farm" a few hundred feet away. ........Walt
