CLUELESS 45

It’s Clueless time again, which this week falls to me to set.

The idea is simply to compile a cryptic clue to a given answer. The winner of the previous week’s competition sets the answer to be clued and judges the entries. There is a one-day time-frame. The judge’s decision is final (reasons may or may not be given at the judge’s discretion).

It is customary for the judge to donate a virtual prize to the winner.

To be fair to others, please do not make any comments on entries until after the winning entry has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted and new competitors are particularly welcome.


The CLUELESS 45 answer is: AMPLITUDE
Clues to be submitted before 16:30 GMT tomorrow (Wednesday 1st February)

Good luck!
