A drip loop or lack of isn't the problem Richard with what I had in mind. With the air-gap type of dielectric insulator rainwater can find its way into a TV/device via the gaps that run through the entire length of the cable's dielectric insulator. Had a couple of incidents of this with relatives TV's, one where the sealing cover for the connection box on the aerial was missing letting rainwater in.
