Signal strength and readability report
open-in-new
<p>A signal strength and readability report is a standardized format for reporting the strength of the radio signal and the readability (quality) of the <a href="/facts/Radiotelephone/MuDe82Uh">radiotelephone</a> (voice) or <a href="/facts/Wireless_telegraphy/g1p5PaPA">radiotelegraph</a> (Morse code) signal transmitted by another station as received at the reporting station's location and by their radio station equipment. These report formats are usually designed for only one communications mode or the other, although a few are used for both telegraph and voice communications. All but one of these signal report formats involve the transmission of numbers. </p>
