Hi Guys,
             just some tips on getting pole pigs.

Basically:
> Sound pro. - if they think you know what you're doing they won't mind
> Don't mention HV experiments or anything out of the ordinary - just say
they are for re-use.
> Know what you want - don't go along and just ask what they have spare -
know your local distribution voltage and what size you need.
> Get them in quantity, it makes them take you seriously - you can always
give the spares away
> Be confident with pricing - just quote them about 150% of what the scrappy
would give them
> Bother to hire a van to collect them in - if you turn up in a saloon and
start trying to load them into the boot (trunk) this doesn't exactly fill
them with confidence.

Happy Hunting
