There's some stuff licensed from Boeing called "Boeshield" that lets ice slip off of aluminum wheels and hte like. Don't know how well it would work on a satellite dish.
Personally I put up a heated dish (you can find them on ebay for 75 bucks or so). Google "Hotshot satellite heater" and you'll find a bunch of suppliers, I don't know who has the best prices.
Yeah I have heard of car wax before too. I need to try it on mine, or the cheap trick below.
Pam spray sure sounds easy though! lol

I found a product that works exceptionally well. The Deoxit people have a MechanicALL lube that works and stays on the surface. I got mine at Fry's. Oh, and if you haven't used Deoxit, you should. Mechanicall is used on all mechanicall applications and DeoxIT is used on all electrical applications. If actually chemically improves connections. I have used it for over 10 years and if the Mechanicall works as good as the Deoxit, it will be my best find of the year. The Ned R. Healy distributors now carry both - my friend works at a car dealer. Just search Mechanicall on Google and it should pop up. Mike
Just speculating, but I wonder how something like the heater strips for pipes would work? Applied to the back of the dish, of course.
Its very simple. Wait for every thing to unfreeze (naturally or in garage). Remove doors. No more problem. =)
