    Score this board please...(totally unique from an electronic co foreclosure auction)





    I ended up winning two Gaylords full of stuff, and one pallet full of brand new MP3 players and medical equipment. The one Gaylord was full of your traditional computer equipment, 10ish monitors, 2 towers, 1 laptop, and a one large box full of normal finger cards. The pallet had 7 or 8 of the BIS-100 biomedical systems new in the box (which I can find 0 info on), between 1000-2000 new MP3 players, and some misc metal stuff. The other Gaylord had all kinds of random boards, including these gems. My question is what are they?

    Looks like mid grade, can't see the other side. Do you see any gold on them? Do know what they came out of?

    I would highly recommend researching these before scrapping. The reason I say this is because of the word printed on the lower right hand corner: Heathkit

    No clue, the fingers appear gold, but I'm not sure. The company dealt in home computer building and electronics.

    Just counted, I have 3100 brand new MP3 players. I'm now trying more to figure out how to monetize them than I am anything else.

    That's what the company auction was. Heathkit went out of business. I missed out on some huge money, there were Gaylord Boxes full of their amplifiers that went for 50-100 a box. I just checked eBay, and the amplifiers bring 4-600 a piece. Oh well.

    Heathkit used to make kits for ham radio and test equipment kits among other things. There should be a board # that you can Google to see what the finished product should have been.

    Like Mech said Heathkit made kits for hams, test equipement, computers even tv's. There is a great following for their products. In addition to ebay check out eham.net for additonal information on Heathkit. Mike
