SYNT has yielded as much as 6% in the past, yields a little under 4% now, and is in the FTSE-250.
I recall TJH used to hold this. Anyone else? His previous commentary:

This was early in 2008 and I bought at 153p, then again later in the year at 82p. Then they decided to stop paying dividends (it being that time) and the price fell to about 40p before rebounding. I sold my usual 25% when they went overweight in October 2009 at 147p, and then in September 2010 I got rid of the rest at 240p. That gave me an IRR of almost 30%, so not unsatisfactory. The dividend had been reinstated, but the yield was about 1.8%, so it was time to bid farewell.

Current price is 342p.
