Yep, but I always used the terms "loud and clear," "breaking up,"
"weak," "garbled," "Roger," etc. ;<)

Ah, ok, thanks. I was using what the Navy taught me, figuring that
Wilton was probably taught something similar.

5 by 5 refers to signal strength (how loud on a scale of 1 to 5) and
clarity, meaning "loud and clear". 1 by 1 would mean "can hear that
you're transmitting but can't understand you."
What would 9 mean?
See http://www.hamuniverse.com/rst.html
R = READABILITY
1 -- Unreadable
2 -- Barely readable, occasional words distinguishable
3 -- Readable with considerable difficulty
4 -- Readable with practically no difficulty
5 -- Perfectly readable
S = SIGNAL STRENGTH
1 -- Faint signals, barely perceptible
2 -- Very weak signals
3 -- Weak signals
4 -- Fair signals
5 -- Fairly good signals
6 -- Good signals
7 -- Moderately strong signals
8 -- Strong signals
9 -- Extremely strong signals
T = TONE
1 -- Sixty cycle a.c. or less, very rough and broad
2 -- Very rough a.c. , very harsh and broad
3 -- Rough a.c. tone, rectified but not filtered
4 -- Rough note, some trace of filtering
5 -- Filtered rectified a.c. but strongly ripple-modulated
6 -- Filtered tone, definite trace of ripple modulation
7 -- Near pure tone, trace of ripple modulation
8 -- Near perfect tone, slight trace of modulation
9 -- Perfect tone, no trace of ripple or modulation of any kind
So 5 by 9 is "Perfectly Readable" "Extremely Strong Signals"
