Greetings, I'm in the process of tearing down a bunch of old (late 90's) industrial GPS equipment. In each unit is one of these. I'm concerned that it might be something hazardous (mercury). Has anyone know what these are? On a side note, do these antenna wires have any special value? I'm thinking just cut the stainless/brass ends and toss in the #3 insulated...Thank you

The two green boards together; if the steel bracket stays I'm thinking low grade. Cut the connection between them then low grade on the one with the bracket and low peripheral on the one with the IC chip.

There should be some gold plating on the connector, clip the wire, Boardsort will probably need to scan the connector to determine payout.

Soup...not sure what to tell you here.
