Over the past 17 years, Contest University has presented over 40 times around the world to teach Radiosport techniques and practices. In addition to the US and Puerto Rico, seven countries have hosted CTUs--Australia, Russia, Germany, Italy, England, Brazil, and Finland. More than 7,000 students have attended these classes where over 90 CTU instructors have shared their contesting experience and expertise.
In the words of CTU Chairman Tim Duffy, K3LR, "Contest University is a platform for sharing ideas and learning new ways to enjoy Amateur Radio Contesting."
CTU program content changes from year to year to cover a myriad of topics. 2023 Contest University Textbooks contain, in print, the complete sets of slides presented by each professor at CTU at the 2023 Dayton Hamvention.
2023 Contest University Textbooks have over 400 pages; most of which are talking-point presentation slides, with two slides per page. However, many pages are devoted to the honor and order of the contesting fraternity. Order your copy today and take the first steps on a life-long journey to becoming a more successful Amateur Radio contest operator.
