[Antennas] Antenna Element Disassembly (stuck element)

[DC]

If sufficient anti seize wasn't used in assembly it may be very difficult to 
get the elements apart.  I would try a quality penetrating lubricant for 
several days by heat if the first doesn't work.  Take your time and you will 
get it.
