Ok all, here is what i have taken away from the last two weeks of this contest. Not sure if any of it matters, it's all probably just boils down to luck but a few things... * I have been listening on Alexa. I linked my siriusxm account to it. She may be a few seconds off from the car feed, but not by much at all. I would hear the promo, get a text message ready to send to my group to start calling, hit send on first note and then dial. * 75% of my calls are dead silence followed by the do,do, do we're sorry your call cant be completed at this time- i hang up as soon as i here the do, do, do and redial. *another 20% of the calls are dead silence, followed by a user busy and busy signal, i quick hit the call back button on iphone. * a few just ring and ring for 5 minutes then it cuts you off. I think this happens once they have the winner on line and are just clearing the lines. * a few times i got through. Got a number 2, 8, 13, 18 and one someone answered and just hung up. All those times i heard music playing (whatever song was on at the moment for about 30 seconds before the person comes on and says my number and hangs up) * today, on my 11th attempt dialing it immediately rang and he picked up after about 4 rings and just said Hello. Didnt tell me if i won or not. I asked him if i was caller 22 and he said Maybe, have a few questions to ask you first. * asked me basic questions- age, address, DOB, can i be in NYC on 3/26, etc * I must have dialed PJ Radio 500plus times over the last two weeks. average 30 tries per play. I didn't give up until about 3 min after i would see someone post on here they were caller 21 or that they won. * as of now, my brother is my plus one. He took 16 year old me to my first show- Randall's island 96 and created this obsession.
GOOD LUCK ALL. It can be done! Keep at it!
Here’s what I do not understand I dialed at least that many times and I never even got a single number I don’t know what’s up with my connection

I love when people post here right after they won tho. It’s exciting. Lets you feel like you have a shot.

GOOD LUCK ALL. It can be done! Keep at it!
This is amazing / love reading the entire playbook. Mine was similar but I won pretty early on (maybe second day of “Go”) but still love reading all the commitment stories. Well done and see you at the show! Jealous you were at Randall’s. Epic sets. I was offered tickets to Lolla 92 at Jones Beach by a middle school friend (and her older brother) and my parents said NO! I’ll never forgive them but cheers to older brothers with good taste in music!
Good morning! Another day, another chance to win. Here's a quick briefing for today (Tuesday).
Song of the week: Do The Evolution Call in window: 5 pm - 10 pm EST (2 pm - 7 pm PST) Chances to win: 2 Number: 855-973-2755

Online and satellite listeners have both won. They seem to start taking callers at online start time.
Online starts to play 2-2.5 minutes after satellite.
Satellite listeners have graciously posted here when the song starts. F5 is your friend.
A short promo for the contest typically plays before the song of the week is aired.
There is typically about 1 hour between each plays. new
Dialing Tips:
When dialing, if you hear "all circuits are busy", "your call can not be completed", or get a standard busy signal, hang up and call again. Otherwise, wait! updated
Fans that have gotten through have reported dead air or hearing background music.
They don't announce the winner on air (except during the FF), but many have been trying for 10-15 minutes before giving up.
Ice cream can be used to keep children occupied while dialing (@MakeUSmile)new
Please answer a basic question for me bc at this point my head hurts from trying so hard to get Baltimore in F2F and trying to figure out how I might get tix to the Apollo. I let my Sirius subscription lapse. If I get an online subscription now am I eligible for the call in tix or are those only for subscribers as of Jan whatever too? Is it worth it as I know that the online programming lags a few seconds behind the radio broadcast?

You had to have an active subscription as of Jan 22 to be eligible.

I’m afraid you aren’t eligible if you were not a subscriber since Jan 22 (they will check). I won on Wednesday 2/12 and got a confirmation email on Friday 2/21. I think they submit the winners from the week on Friday and it took a week to verify eligibility, etc.

Unfortunately, I don't think you are eligible. Pulled this from the rules. "OPEN ONLY to active SiriusXM subscribers (self-paid or an introductory trial)
continuously since January 22, 2020" ttps://siriusxm.com/pjrules
Thanks guys. That was my understanding of the rules as well. I felt the need to double check just in case I was wrong. I’m sure that I am no more deserving of anyone else in this thread, however, if anyone needs a +1... I’m a very nice person. I’m a mom and a healthcare professional who doesn’t drink or smoke anything. I’m a dedicated stander in lines so if you needed merch from any show I’m attending in the future I’d be standing in that line to get that merch for you.

Good luck today guys. A little PJ equation I made on my phone today. Keep dialing! Miracles do happen! (Redid the ice cream photo, because the photographer in me was a bit embarrassed by the motion blur and mess of my kitchen during yesterday’s dialing madness)
can you feel this world with your heart and not your brain?
