So the power plants that I work at are scrapping hundreds of transmitters and I asked my boss if I could keep the circuit boards to scrap them. So today he came in with a couple bags about 30lbs worth of boards. Each board weighs only a couple oz and has 12 really nicely plated pins, 5 Tantalum capacitors ( the bullet kind ) 1 silver mica capacitor and 3 gold plated transistors. There also is some other stuff like a small aluminum heatsink, what i think is a transformer ( cant tell yet, its encased have to crack it open ), a little bit of steel and some heavy silver solder traces.
Not too bad for a day at the office! ( so to speak )
