Crawley Microwave Round Table Program 2016

12th September 2016 By Mike Davies

 

Crawley Microwave Round Table Program

Sunday 18th September 2016 

Again this year following we will be holding a heat for the UK Microwave Group,

annual Project contest for the G3VVB trophy. Please do bring along your constructed
equipment or project and enter. Entries do not necessarily need to have been
finished during the last year.Please note that the contest will also accept software
entries as well as hardware. The winner of this round will go on to be considered,
together with entries from all the other round tables over a year both before
and after this event.  

The morning will feature the usual ‘bring and buy’ sale, so if you have something to

sell then please bring it along. The Crawley club also intend to sell the majority of
the late Derek G3GRO’s microwave equipment at this event, although no details
of the contents are currently available. 

Mike G3LYP will be happy to bring any chip components from the UKuW Group

chipbank to you at the meeting. If you have a forthcoming project then why not
contact Mike beforehand to place your orders,which are free for UKuW group

members.
