Ed, you would be Much Better Off, if they would allow you to use (2)
runs of Coax, side by side up the mast, and connect only the Center
Conductor of each, to the tuner, with the shield left open on each
end and sealed against water intrusion.

What does this do, what does it achieve?

My expertise is weak in this area, but just guessing.... using twin
coax in the above configuration, if the shields were grounded, would
allow the feedling between the antenna coupler and the feedpoint to be
'balanced' and yet the shields would not radiate as they would with a
single coax run.

Perhaps others, here, will either expand on this, or correct my
misconception.
