Horribly bad practice! Running coaxial cable through metallic conduit will
change the impedance. Also running transmitter coax alongside receive coax
in the same cable bundle is a fool's bet and assumes zero VSWR on the
transmitting antenna. You may be an old-timer, but I've been around the
track a number of times myself and can tell you, unequovically, what
you're doing is wrong.
