They have been sold for many years by ships chandlers to keep roosting
starlings off yachts. I got a little owl for my Brother's birthday
last year for a tenner (I think from www.nauticalia.co.uk) although it
was discovered soon after covered in guano!

Buildings have this problem and seem to use netting, carpets of 3 inch
stainless steel spikes and lattices of fishing wire to make it
impossible to perch on ledges. Look up at any high street for ideas!
Perhaps some form of netting enclosure could be made to make it hard
to land on the aerial? You naturally can't use metal and I suspect
wind resistance could become a problem- too much stuff and a gust will
bring the aerial down on the car!
TTFN,
