I won a radio contest yesterday. The key is to get ahead of the station when they actually say they’re “looking for caller #whatever”. Usually once they announce they’re going to do a contest in, say, 30 minutes, start calling in ten. They have a winner before they tell everyone to call in. I learned that yesterday… And won! :)
