The prizes 2008

Elektor editors have phoned their contacts in the trade and industry to request sponsorship for this special event. The response was overwhelming. For example, National Instruments have sponsored 8 LabVIEW packages complete with USB data acquisition modules, representing a total value of £18,500! Agilent kindly added a fantastic portable oscilloscope worth £1,300 to our stock of prizes. Fluke obliged by allowing us to give away one of their digital multimeters worth £460. Elektor themselves added a little something to the stock of prizes: an ElekTrack unit that allows you to fi nd back your caravan at all times, or indeed any other vehicle or valuable object. Also from Elektor are sets of E-credits and a number of vouchers that allow you pick your own prize from the Elektor Shop.
