From: Tedd Mirgliotta (KB8NW) 

I am proud to announce that registration is now open for the 2024 DaytonConTest University ("CTU") to be held all day on Thursday May 16, 2024 at the Hope Hotel. https://www.hopehotel.com/   This is the day before Hamvention opens in Xenia, Ohio. CTU 2023 Dayton was amazing - we expect 2024 CTU to be even better!

Eight different countries have hosted CTUs over the past fifteen years. USA, Australia, Russia, Germany, Italy, England, Brazil and Finland. Over 9500 students have attended these CTUs with more than 100 CTU Professors sharing their contesting experiences.

2024 will be the 15th year for CTU Dayton. To give you an idea of the quality of the CTU content and activities you can see videos and PDF presentations from past CTUs on the CTU web site at: http://contestuniversity.com

The 2024 CTU Dayton course outline will be posted as soon - once all have confirmed in 2024. Check the CTU website for updates. Each presentation is carefully prepared with up to date information - the CTU professors are experienced contesters and will share their
knowledge.

There are scholarships (registration fee paid) available for CTU through a grant from the Northern California DX Foundation (NCDXF) for those students 25 years old and younger. Please use the "contact us" button on the CTU website to get more information.

2024 Student registration information is on the CTU web site now   http://contestuniversity.com

CTU registration makes a great Christmas gift!

Important - as we did last year - if you want to sign up for CTU 2024 Dayton and you have given (or will give one by Hamvention 2024) a talk about Amateur Radio to any club, Hamfest or group since May 18, 2023 - you qualify for a $10.00 registration fee discount. Please choose the "Registration with Club talk discount" option to get the $10.00 discount. Spreading the word about amateur radio is lots of fun and can save you money at CTU!

Thanks to all of the CTU sponsors including Icom America, DX Engineering, the Northern California DX Foundation, YASME, the Radio Club of America and CQ Magazine for making CTU possible. Thanks to Teri, K8MNJ, KC3UCJ, N8AMY and K1SO for all of their help with CTU. Special thanks to Scott, KA9FOX from QTH.com for hosting and constructing the CTU headquarters web site.

See you in Dayton at CTU 2024 and Merry Christmas,
Tim K3LR - Contest University Chairman
