Default Burying coax idea

Have any of you ever used a gas powered lawn edger to bury a cable/s?
I was thinking of trying this. I wonder if I set the edger blade at
about 2 " or so deep and took my time if it would work. I need to bury
3 cables from my Direct TV dish and a RG8 coax from my vertical to my
house. Please post if you think this would work or have tried it.


I have tried this. It worked ok for smaller RG6-sized cable for my
beverages. It was fairly time-consuming and not that easy to do. The
slot cut by the edger I have is too narrow to bury RG8 sized cable easily
however.
