[TowerTalk] Antenna Disassembly

 Mosley uses SS metal screws to secure elements. I have had success in the past by A: removing the screw and  drilling out the hole .180. Using machine bolts with drilled through holes when re assembling. As for elements seizes bt electrosis, I have had success with Blaster  or Krole Oil and prudent use of a benzomatic hand help torch. YMMV

What is the best way to separate the tubing so the joints can be cleaned ? All are seized & I'm unable to separate them by hand. Don't want to use pipe wrenches. Will heat free them up, or is there a spray that will do the job ? Someone out there must have run into this before & has the best answer. Can you let me in on the secret?> > K0SON> Bruce> _______________________________________________> > > > _______________________________________________> TowerTalk mailing list> TowerTalk at contesting.com> http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk
