Do You Know Your Radio Codes?

Ever wanted to know what it meant when someone said 10-4 on their two-way radio? 10-radio codes, or 10 signals, are used to represent common phrases.  The codes were developed in 1937 and first used by the U.S. Navy. They were later expanded in 1974 by the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials-International (APCO). They are especially popular among law enforcement officials including municipal and provincial police, as well as the RCMP. Below you will find a list of common 10-radio codes so you too, can talk like an expert.
