In APCO 10-codes, 10-62 refers to "Reply to message."
This code is used by law enforcement or emergency services to indicate that a unit has received a message and is responding to it. It signifies communication acknowledgment, ensuring that both the dispatcher and the responding unit are on the same page.
For example, a communication using this code might look like this:
- Dispatcher: "Unit 23, please respond to the previous message regarding the robbery."
- Unit 23: "10-62, dispatch. Responding now."
Using 10-62 helps maintain effective communication and clarity within operations, ensuring that messages are acknowledged and acted upon appropriately.
