Art,
The reason most coax outer jackets are black is to slow breakdown of the plastic material by UV rays. There is not much coax designed for outdoor use that is not either black or possessed of a solid metal outer conductor. You could try getting your hands on some coax hardline of the cable TV variety and painting it white.....

Greetings,

Can anyone recommend a WHITE coax for antenna lead of about 40-50’ ?  My XYL
is very fussy about wires showing and black sticks out like a sore thumb.
Would the coax used by TV cable installers work ok?  I’m only running 100 W
max.  That’s the only white coax I’ve seen.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

73’s,
