[TowerTalk] Disassembling Telrex Booms

[Bob Maser]

I just acquired a couple of Telrex yagis that I am not able to take the 
booms apart.  They have probably been assembled for many years and I don't 
know whether they were assembled with Pentrox.  I am looking for tips on 
getting them apart without destroying them.  WD40 doesn't work.  I have some 
PB Blaster penetrating spray that I plan to try tomorrow(when I pick them up 
from the current owner).  Anyone have experience with this problem?  As a 
last resort I could cut them apart at the joints and put sleeves in upon 
reassembling them.

Any comment will be appreciated.
