Hey folks,
I'm wondering if anyone has or if we could put together a list of parts to keep an eye out for at electronics swap meets, yard sales, etc. I work at MIT and occasionally go to the the radio club's swap meets, come across stashes of stuff in cruft piles, etc, but I don't know what I should be looking out for.

thanks
