We never get ice on our ladder line but do get a bit of ice on our "pretzel"
when putting up antennas in the winter!
You can't be too careful when it comes to protecting your pretzel.

Well, it's known far and wide amongst us Southerners, that ya'll do have
all 4 seasons in the north...
Almost winter

I took pictures of my 450-ohm ladder line with 1/4" of ice on it, because
we just don't -get- ice storms down here.

Then how did your 450 ohm ladder line get 1/4" of ice on it?
