I have never seen an issue with coax laying directly on a shingle roof.

This is my month for questions. I am looking at placing a receiving loop
(and a rotator) on my roof. The roof has architectural asphalt shingles.
What is a reasonable way to get coax and a rotator control cable to the
loop?  In my case, I cannot access the roof point from inside the house.
How should I protect the cables from the rough shingles? And protect the
shingles from being rubbed by the cables? If the answer is conduit, should
it simply lay on the shingles or be raised somehow?
