Get well soon

That's better than the truck. Get your fingers limbered up, if you remember how it's done 

Oh I member, Pilgrim.

Didn't plan to disappear on you guys last night, but the sleet & ice collecting on the face of the dish finally killed the signal; not the 1st time it's happened.

I had a stroke of genius this morning. I figured I'd have to go out in the sleet & rain to throw warm water on the dish, which is on a 4-5' post, close to the back of the house. I noticed it was also not far from the kitchen window, so I extended the spray tube in the faucet as far as it would go, waited for the water to warm up, & cleared enough ice off the dish to ge a signal, & here I am.

I'm so brilliant sometimes that I scare myself 

You could also put some of that heat tape for pipes on the back and run an extension cord inside to plug it in when needed

Never thought of that. I usually brush straight snow off with a broom. Thought about a propane torch, but that would entail a ladder & probably wouldn't do the dish any good

Good morning LocalYokel

Amazing, isn't it??? Old age and treachery will win over youth and enthusiasm every time!

What do you do with the crooked snow? Propane torches are good on tent caterpillars.

@Sally Sunshine
Hope you get lots of rest.

Sally, this ? got lost way back, so I'm bringing it forward:

Sally, where did you get those pronged egg holders that you show in your coolerbator? You have a manual tilter, yes? I'm debating on making a slider to turn eggs horizontally, or doing a tilter. Either one will be manual. Weighing options re: using dbl light bulbs vs other heat source in dorm fridgeabator. All suggestions entertained!
