Sweepstakes CW

Worked "Sweepstakes" over the weekend. Went in, wanting to put in a pretty decent effort ... but that sort of changed when I found out my TV interference problem was still causing me problems. That .. plus my not so great antenna on the low bands, made me shut things down Saturday night. Hit it pretty hard on Sunday, but seemed to be agonizingly slow at times. Once I got Alaska and Hawaii for my "sweep", and looking at the prospect of spending the rest of the contest on 40 or 80 Meters ... with the lousy antenna and TVI ... figured I'd pack it in. Ended up with 599 contacts and a "sweep" (my goal), so I was satisfied.
