Stuck Antenna and Ground Posts? - jamr005 - 03-05-2018

Ok, I must be doing something wrong.  I just finished my Philco 77 and it is playing great.  The antenna and ground posts are obviously spring-loaded but they won't push down to accept the antenna and ground wires.  I have WD40ed them both but still no luck.  Anyone see this problem before and if so how did you fix it?  Or is it operator error on my part?
Thanks,
Joe

Try PB-Blaster. With a little heat it does wonders.
