In Ohio, we scrub our antennas every March after we're sure
there's no more road salt around. The molecular radii of the salt
particles is such that their adherence beyond April is assured if
we don't get to it soon enough. So it's a big thing here with us.
We use 1200 grit paper and wet-sand it. I call the fire house boys
and they bring over a ladder truck so I can scrub off my ladder line too!
They're usually pretty good-natured about it, figuring they and I are doing
a public service anyway.
