We report of the design, constrcution, commissioning, and beamtests of a prototype calorimeter. This calorimeter is of a novel design so as to equalize its response to electromagnetic and hadronic energy deposits of equal primary energy. Thus its response to jets is independent of the jet's electromagnetic versus hadronic composition. The beamtests show that the prototype satisfies the design requirements. The design, construction and the results of beamtests have been published in several papers in a refereed journal
