If anyone has this part which is inside a W123 Hirschmann antenna, please let me know. Super simple to remove. Just need a small screwdriver and a small hooked pick to remove the “C” clip. Please PM. I want to buy 3 of them. So if you have one or three, I will buy them

As long as you don't mind that one tab broken off I have several.
This would be a good part for a 3D printer

I do too. Lol.

That’s why I’m looking for a few now

I’ve been pinging 3-D printers for a week or so and folks must be way way too busy for some new work since no one can take the time to respond

If you ever find someone to make them I would be in the market for a couple as well.

Already tried that ... well over $5,000 ...

The only real way to make a bunch of these would be by mold, 3D scanning, et cet. Even the Chinese firm who responded said $5,000. I pinged literally over a dozen US firms, and some ignored my request, even though I got a little obnoxious with repetitive emails and a few calls. Some said they would either 1. need $1,000 up front to look at it or 2. I am looking at $8,000 to $12,000. #1 option was a scam in my opinion to get $1,000 bucks to tell me it will cost a zillion dollars and I am thinking $3000-$7000 price premium is a high premium for a USA made part I doubt I would sell more than a dozen over the next year or so. Plus, I have no guarantee the USA firm would not just sub-contract this out to the Chinese firm. I have zero desire to support the Chinese economy although I do every day without a real say in the matter.

So, long story short, I will be hitting the yards to pick a few of these up in the future. It is cheaper to waste a day and a few gallons of fuel to grab a part which the front desk will probably give me for free because it is too much of a hassle to try to look up something to price it at. It is more important to play with one's iPhone versus working.
The days of the old timers who just sat behind a desk with no computer and just priced parts off the top of their head, depending on their monthly bills, gambling debts, or other monthly costs are long gone.

How much would you pay for a new part like that?

Re your second paragraph, oh boy you're wrong. My local yard hired a young lad recently, he checks car-part/craigslist and without even asking, prints an invoice with the highest price he could find. I walked away a few times already, but there is time wasted pulling those parts. I guess he thinks that people won't walk away after time investment.
I started to really appreciate the clearly stated pick-n-pull price list and discount days. Although in recent months, they started to bill for every tiniest thing, like an old used light bulb, which wasn't the case before corona.

I’d pay $20 bucks shipped in a padded envelope

Did you ever find this part. If so can you let me know.I to am in need of one

No other than buying whole units and 3-D printing is cost prohibitive

Be careful- I’m getting pinged by scammers a few times a week. Gotta love the forums . . .

And the scammers are still pinging me even though I called them out.
