Are you curious about ham radio contesting but not sure where to start? In this beginner-friendly presentation, Dennis Vernacchia (N6KI) shares decades of experience to explain how amateur radio contesting works and why so many operators enjoy it.

Dennis has been a licensed amateur radio operator since 1963 and an active contester since 1988. In this presentation, he walks through the fundamentals of contesting, including the equipment you need, popular logging software, operating strategies, and how beginners can get on the air and start making contacts.

In this video, we walk step-by-step through converting an existing DMR codeplug from the AnyTone 878UVIIPlus to the AnyTone 890 / Maverick. If you’re upgrading to the 890/Maverick or want to reuse your carefully built 878 codeplug, this guide will save you time and frustration.
We’ll cover:
• Key differences between the 878UVIIPlus and 890/Maverick codeplug formats
• What settings transfer cleanly and what must be adjusted
• Zones, channels, talkgroups, and contacts considerations
• CPS tips to avoid common errors during conversion
• Final checks before writing the codeplug to your radio
