> Dear Sir/Madam,
>
> I would be very grateful if you could remind your club members that there is
> only one month to go before entries close for the annual RSGB Construction
> Competition. This year the competition is being sponsored by Martin Lynch
> and Sons with prizes of £50 of vouchers for each category winner and £100 for
> the winner of prestigious Pat Hawker G3VA Trophy that will be awarded to the
> best overall entry.
>
> There are four categories –
>
> 1) Designer. This is aimed at encouraging original designs, which can be
> software, hardware or a combination thereof. Entries in this class will be
> judged on the elegance and innovation used to solve a new problem, or to
> solve a well-known problem in some better way. The entry will also be judged
> on the degree to which it advances the state of the art in amateur radio.
>
> 2) Craftsman. This category is aimed at those constructing projects designed
> by someone else; entries are likely to be based on a published design. Kits
> may feature, either as a part or the whole of the project. For kit builders,
> credit will be given for personal additions, modifications or finishing
> touches. Entries in this class will be judged on the overall quality of the
> construction/excellence in craftsmanship.
>
> 3) Beginner. This category is aimed at those new to amateur radio. The
> entrant must have been a member of the RSGB for less than a total of three
> years and must have held an amateur radio licence of any type for less than
> three years.
>
> 4) Junior Member. This category is aimed at our young members. The entrant
> must be a Junior member of the RSGB on the date of submission of the entry.
>
> The competition is designed to encourage home construction, experimentation,
> design and innovation, and any Member of the RSGB is eligible to enter. The
> closing date for entries is 30 September and judging will take place at the
> RSGB Convention.
>
> If your club organises your own construction competition, please encourage
> the entrants to submit their work to us as well.
