signing off
Final words broadcast
Signing off is concluding a communication or broadcast.
Radio operators sign off at the end of transmissions; television stations sign off at the end of the broadcast day.
In everyday use, it marks ending a conversation or workday: I'm signing off for the night.
To sign off on something is to give formal approval: The director signed off on the budget.
