Ron,

Take a look at http://www.psb-info.net/

You can see the proposed PSB (print strength bandwidth) or RSQ (readability 
strength quality) are a compact way of describing a PSK31 signal. The 
respective reporting tables are at.

http://www.psb-info.net/Reporting-Table.html
http://www.psb-info.net/RSQ-Reporting-Table.html

I use these schemes when reporting  but often avoid calling it PSB or RSQ to 
avoid lengthy explanations or the sending of URLs .   Although, I accept that 
giving that qualifying information could be useful to the receiving operator.

If I receive a "579" or a "339", for example, I have a pretty good idea how my 
signal is being received. If the third digit is not a "9" then I will ask for 
more information on the IMD etc.
