Hello scrappers and planet lovers. In this video, I will show you all the free copper, aluminum, stainless steel, tin, and other metals that can be found when scrapping some older radios. I will show you how to safely and effectively identify and separate the metals in order to help maximize your profit and divert as much of the material away from the landfill as possible.

It’s going to be 100% when I get done with it. I’m currently stripping a set of Christmas lights. I was certainly surprised at the amount of copper in them. Will never pass them up. Micro scrapping is what I do I don’t have room for anything extra. Keep the goodie’s and throw away the trash. 👍

Wow. I remember that exact GE mono radio (the black & silver one). Back in the eighties, I worked at Peterson's Electronics in London Ont. as an electronic technician. I mostly serviced industrial Sony equip but I remember that radio which I always had playing in the background.

Variable capacitors are also sellable on eBay.

Get some contact cleaner and a toothbrush and it would clean up really well.

those radios are worth more than the few ounces of scrap you get. Those are both late 60s early 70s and would easily sell as is for 25-30 each

There's hardly any copper inside. The GE Superadio II is valuable and not so common.

Vintage electronics guys like me can make good with old devices. Most are repairable.
