Homebrew Contest / Show&Tell

Friday 17 May 2013
8.00pm - 10.00pm

We encourage everyone with a homebrew project to display at FDIM. You can choose whether you want it to be judged or just displayed.

The categories are -

• All hombrew (transceiver, transmitter, receiver)
• Modified kit (transceiver, transmitter, receiver)
• Station accessory (homebrew or modified kit)
• Test equipment (homebrew or modified kit)
• Antenna

There are awards in each category and also a special 'Best Of Show' prize.

To enter an item in the contest and ensure that it is part of the voting, you must register your item between 7.00pm and 8.00pm on Friday. A registration table will be outside the main Ballroom and will be managed by Terry Fletcher WA0ITP.

Each entry will be given a card that lists the category and item number, along with a description of the item and the call sign of the owner.  This card must be displayed with your entry.

Judging will be done between 8.00pm and 10.00pm on Friday night. The judges will be the attendees of the Club Night on Friday. Each will be given a ballot that must be submitted by 10.00pm on Friday.

Winners will be announced at the Grand Banquet on Saturday, May 18.  If you are bringing an item for the Show & Tell and do not wish it to be judged,  you need not register, simply come to the Ballroom between 7.45pm and 8.00pm. A table will be assigned and you can set up before the doors open to the public at 8.00pm.

Whether you are part of the Homebrew Contest or the 'Show & Tell', please let us know your intentions when you register so that we can assure we have adequate space for all.
