The March/April, 2024 issue of the National Contest Journal (NCJ) spotlights HamSCI members and activities across three different articles.
Most prominent is the cover photo and three-page column 'Next Gen Contesters', which features McKenzie Denton, KO4GLN. McKenzie shares her essay 'What Attracted me to Amateur Radio'. The column is a regular feature written by Youth On The Air director (and HamSCI member) Neil Rapp, WB9VPG.
The lead article, written by HamSCI member and supporter Tim Duffy, K3LR, is entitled '15 Years of Contest University' . CTU is major event, held annually at the Dayton (Xenia) Hamvention. The talk by Dr. Nathaniel Frissell, W2NAF, 'Contesting for Ionospheric Science During the 2023 and 2024 North American Solar Eclipses', was mentioned in the 2023 rundown of instructors and sessions.
Finally, the results of the Gladstone Signal Spotting Challenge were presented in an article authored by Gary Mikitin, AF8A. It is hoped that by publishing last October's results only weeks before the 2024 North American solar eclipse that NCJ readers will be inspired to participate in the next running of the GSSC.
