If you want an accurate signal report, the place to go is RBN

Just Send CQ and wait for the spots to roll in.

Everything else is preamble [contest 599 - for everyone] or overly polite, or a wild guess,
or all of the above.

Why be upset with a 599? Because of that very same variability; it is highly
unlikely that you will have exactly the same propagation to different parts
of the world at the same time, so why should you accept the same report from
all contacts without question?
