Moving a receiver

I am amoving a receiver from one side of the room to another and had hoped to splice in the attic space and run additional cable across the room. I called Directv and they suggested a whole new run. Due to second story issues, it looks like my best option is a rather long (100 ft.) outdoor run. For esthetic purposes, I would like 1/2 of this run to be undergound (the remainder under a deck) and would prefer to use plastic pipe (to make any future installs easier). I seem to remember that the techs prefer buring the cable instead. Is this true and if so do I need to purchase any special coax cable. I already have the RG-G Quad.
