Scrapping a boat load of old Motorola Motac radios and they have 4 of the larger transistors as well as a handful of the little round guys in them. Internet says they're gold plated. Will they just go as gold bearing ends same as from cords or is there a different category for these.

He may be able to give you an estimate if he's familiar with the specific components, but he may need to use the xrf gun on them to give you an exact price.

The power transistors. The To-3 package Chris did give me a quote.
It was a quote for pound.
So. As Marked141 wrote. If Chris is familar with a component. He can give a quote. Other than that. Request the scan.
I can not tell you exactly the procedure for a request like that.

You'd have to physically send one (or all of you're ready to sell them) in. Which still means communicate with Chris.
