Helix 7 micro card (advice/help needed)
The Helix 7 that I have networked with the 9 is a nice unit but I sure am struggling with the micro sd card slot on this unit.
Granted I have big ol fat fingers but it is nearly impossible for me to get this card in or out without the use of tweezers and even had a hard time with them.
Any special tricks or advice to make this less cumbersome?

Tweezers or needle nose ...
Be sure to push in on the card a tad to release the spring catch in the slot ...

Yeah my Helix 9 has 2 slots and also takes the standard sd cards.Originally Posted by eagle 1
The helix 7 however only has 1 slot and takes the micro sd. Due to location up on the side of unit, the recess is very deep and hard to access. This particular instance was for product update but I like to take screen shots and catalog on computer for future use as well

Thanks Rickie. I was pushing in to get spring release but it doesn't really "pop out" to where I could get hold of it. I guess tweezers or NN is the next best option. Thanks

I use a pair of hemostats on my Helix 5 which has the same deep socket.

I have a hard time getting mine out to. I just tell the ol lady to pull it out. She's got nails

I have a pair of surgical locking clamps to get mine out.

Whew Pithon, I wasn't sure where that was going!
My wife doesn't fish with me but she's got nails and probably has better eyesight than me. I may try this route.
