This actually makes sense, but we can definitely improve upon the

red circle (high error rate) &
red square (unusable data stream)

This would have to be heavily tied into the signal monitoring
stuff that Daniel is working on though. I'm sure we can come up
with some pretty pictures that mean the same thing.....
