loud and clear
Heard without doubt
Loud and clear means completely understood, with no ambiguity or confusion.
The phrase comes from radio communication, where operators confirm signal quality: Do you read me? Loud and clear.
It now applies broadly to any message received without misunderstanding: I heard you loud and clear—you want me to leave.
