Ice on antennas driving me nuts. Please help.

Use some Gorilla tape and tie a cord around the end so you can pull the cord going down the road to get the ice off.

 

Worst ice storm I ever saw was down by Brawley. Real humdinger....

 

Attach a string to the antenna put a knot on the tip, run the string to your driver window / pull it every ten minutes to thwack the ice off. Repeat as necessary

 

a string ? eventually they'll break, someone's going to sell heated antennas one day, until then suggestions have been made.

 

perhaps installing another set where you're able to reach them would help.

 

A tennis ball.

 

I used to have a 10' whip on my pickup, I put a tennis ball on it to keep it from beating my bed to death but idk if it will help on the cab. worth a shot though.

 

a tennis ball on these ?

will they break ?

 

Likewise for me.

 

I've had antennas (antennae for you smart ones) ice up and break off in fog. A tennis ball could keep them from beating on yer cab, or maybe a small bungee cord to keep them from flopping around
