Not really anything that can be done. At least when we get freezing rain it melts within the next day. I've had a backhaul 5ghz grid go down from very minimal ice before. That was a bad night....

I know that it is best to use a dish and cover where weather is prone to these kinds of things but some installs do not have the luxury. I have heard that spraying Pam (or some kind of oil, regardless of brand) should help for at least a few months - is this so?
