Read further down on your link, Bob's kit is
FANTASTIC, but does not include the puller. Too easy to fabricate one
yourself. I agree also that "rocking" the boards back and forth is the
best method, plus it "cleans" the contacts a bit, hi.

---Match the 2 3/4 in. dimension with the actual hole spacing of
the boards. The wire really needs to be stiff, maybe from a heavy duty
coat hanger. If you can bend it with a pliers, vice grip, etc., it's
not heavy enough. Use a vise and a hammer. 8-)Someone else
may have a better suggestion.Joe, K9HDEPS My experience is that
rocking the board back and forth (left/right) works better that trying to
pull the board directly (up) out of the
TR-7.
