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....

Subject: [WISPA] Weather proofing antennas

I am curious to know if anyone does anything to prepare for lots of ice on
grid antennas.  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?
