Default Cheap chinese data output jacks...

Finally did something about my intermittent scale data port on my
chinese digital scales. Straightened out the "spring" contacts on the
scale plug, tinned them, and then soldered them directly to the PCB traces.

Damn cheap design. Been so long since I bought 'em, I misplaced the
extra data cables... Have to order a few more.

Have soldering iron, will travel.
