Icy antenna

After a night of rain, sleet and ice build up, I was pleasantly surprised to see the antenna was still up in the tree. It was covered in ice which I think must have affected the performance of the antenna because the radio seemed to have a harder time tuning on some of the bands.

Still seemed to work ok, although I don’t think I was able to melt any of the ice while I was playing radio today. I probably need moar watts.
