Heater hose clamp..

Can anyone tell me how to get the clamp off of the heater hose to the t-stat housing. I've never seen one like it. It is shaped kind of like an "A" on top with a screw going right down through the top. If I take the screw out the clamp doesn't seem to losen at all. I feel really stupid, but I don't want to have to cut off the hose and the clamps and have to replace the hose too.

Thanks,
Vince

Just put a channel-lock around the clamp, squeeze just enough to get a good grip and twist it left and right. It's just baked on there real good.
