How does heating help? The thermo conductivity of aluminum is very high and
it seems like the inside tube would expand as quickly as the outside one.

Hiya, George --
Long time no see. How're you doing?
You'll get lots of answers so here are a couple. Heat one piece of the
boom and freeze the other piece. Use some Liquid Wrench liberally.
I've found that a chain wrench is REAL handy when dealing with round
objects like booms and masts.
Cheers,
