I had around 1/8" - 1/4" of ice here on my C-51XR, C-31XR, C-3E, and
EF-180B/D antennas over the ARRL CW contest weekend (3 weeks ago) and
noticed little performance difference (gain) and some SWR difference

on 20-10 meters. My C-51XR has 40 meters also and the SWR was shifted
around 300 KHz lower. The EF-180B also had SWR problems around 300 KHz
in shift too. I will assume this is due to the shortened element
lengths...??

No problems were noticed due to the weight of the ice and wind (around
25 mph max). The ice was on the antennas for about 3 days...

73's,
