All this traffic about buried coax getting wet has
me wondering about coax that is not buried. 
Doesnt it get wet too?  I know mine does.  At
least when it rains.  Sometimes it rains very hard
and the stuff gets drippy wet.  Of course it is
not buried.  Come to think of it, if it were
buried, it might not get near as wet.

Just a thought.
