jazzy_daveIf you ever wondered what Faith meant by "five by five" here is the answer -
The term "Five by Five" comes from old radio slang. When communicating over radio, the operator would report the strength and clarity of the signal on a scale of 1 to 5 each. Therefore, if a radio operator described the signal as "five by five" it meant it was both loud and clear.
