Time is running out to enter the RSGB Construction Competition. You don’t have to be an expert constructor, and the judges will give special recognition to entries submitted by radio amateurs under the age of 24, and also to those who have just gained their Foundation licence. The four categories are: Beginners; Construction Excellence; Innovation; and Software. There are cash prizes in every category. The RSGB Communications Manager chatted to last year’s winners and runners-up and shared their stories in the January 2023 and February 2023 editions of RadCom. So, take a look and be inspired! You can also read the stories and find out how to enter the competition on the RSGB website at rsgb.org/construction-competition.
