Generally (both Fed and OBR) the way this is called around here is either "Strike Three!" or "Strike Three, Batter's out", accompanied either by your strike mechanic or your strike mechanic followed by your out mechanic.

at the schools and PBUC they are teaching, that if the ball is obliviously not caught, then there is no reason to give a "no catch/safe" signal. and all you do is hold out your right hand almost like your making a 1st down signal.
If it is right down and the catcher feet then give a no catch/safe signal.. the reason is they think it looks crazy when the PU gives a strike, then a safe and then a tag signal, all right in about 3 sec... it is way too much, make it sort and sweet.
