If they are the one\u2019s I think they are I use a very small flat blade screwdriver, jewellers screwdrivers are ideal as you can get very close to the ideal size.
Many thanks

Subject: [vintagesynthrepair] moog flag tool
Hi,
I don´t suppose anyone have an extra "moog flag tool"?
This is the minimoog "flag tool" that you use to release the small metal "flags" that are inside those white plastic AMP multicontacts that holds all the PCBs. Used in some other synths as well, but the minimoog is infamous for these, since you need to remove them and solder the cables (originally they are only crimped).
So what are people using these days? It says in the service manual that "if you are careful, you can use a paper clip".
Well, I tried, but I never seem to get the feeling of to do this.
Any hints?
