Made a big rookie mistake

[MIKEJ]

I installed a cellphone booster on my roof near the eavestrough and drilled a hole through the shingles to feed the coax cable. I then ran the cable through the attic to where I needed it in the house. I obviously didn't think it through but think I ****ed up now. I siliconed the crap out of it and plan on putting on roof cement over the are where the cable is once it gets warmer.

Am I panicking for nothing or did I **** up? What should I do?

Post a photo of it so we can see what you did. There may be simple fixes you can do but can’t say what you need without first seeing it.

I'll try getting up there in the next few days and I'll post a picture.

Two types of caulk to never use on a roof, silicone and roof cement. Unless the roof cement is protected from UV rays. Look for a caulk that is made to holdup to exterior conditions.
