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.

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. <snip> 73, Eric PD9EL ------------------------------------ _______________________________________ No viruses found in this outgoing message Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.3.5 http://www.iolo.com
