Each year at FDIM attendees have the opportunity to bring their latest
projects and enter them into the "Building Contest". There are six
categories that are judged by the people attending Friday night's event.
This year we will add a special category called the FDIM 2010 QRP Challenge.
The rules for the challenge are listed below and at
http://www.qrparci.org/fdim72. Normally we do not make FDIM announcements
until January, but we thought that the extra time gained by announcing this
in December would help the participants. So put on your thinking caps and
heat up the irons. Let's see what can be done with this challenge!
