Eric, I too have a lot of 599's in my log and think I know why at least for
the hams using MixW if you leave it set for default RSQ it will send 599. I
set my reply so it asks me to enter the RSQ before the macro runs and I try
to read an actual signal report of the scope in the MixW screen. Seems to
work. MixW will seldom show a 599. Last night I saw a couple of nice QSO's
on the waterfall that it showed as 589 and 579, these guys had really clean
signals with IMD readings above -26 in both cases. I'll look for you on the
waterfall next time 20 opens to the east.

Subject: [digitalradio] digital modes and signal reports
Hello,
Being mostly interested in digital modes, I'm usually
active on 20 mtr doing psk31 and some JT65a.
Yesterday I logged psk31 QSO #200, and went to take a
closer look at my log, and found that all but one of them
had RSQ 599 given, and received.
73,
Eric PD9EL
