This is a new venture linked with the Rishworth QRP Mini-Convention on Saturday 20th October at Rishworth School. Because of circumstances beyond our control, we are no longer able to use the laboratories where we previously held the Buildathon and Equipment Display. So we have moved these to the Friday evening before the convention. We have secured the use of a large room at the Premium Inn at Halifax, some 6 miles from Rishworth for a “Constructor’s Evening”. This web page is downloadable as a PDF.
- Buildathon
Build a project under the guidance of experienced constructors
The buildathon project for 2011 was a Z Match ATU. For 2012 we are offering a bi-directional wattmeter - a Stockton bridge - all parts will be supplied including the two edge reading meters.
- QRP Show and Tell
Bring along your favourite QRP project – show it off and tell us about it. PowerPoint is available for those who want to show drawings and pictures.
- A Free Buffet Supper.
- Large Meeting Area with bar and free tea and coffee
To meet up and chat with fellow QRP Fans
The idea is to have an evening for anyone interested in radio construction – showing their projects, sharing ideas or joining the buildathon. If you are interested in being part of the Constructor’s Evening let George or Graham know (postal addresses are also in SPRAT).
