In APCO 10-codes, 10-64 refers to "Message for Local Delivery."
This code is typically used in communications among law enforcement, emergency services, or dispatchers to indicate that a specific message or piece of information needs to be delivered locally, usually to a particular officer or unit in the field.
For example, a communication might look like this:
- Dispatcher: "Unit 5, I have a 10-64 for you regarding a local business break-in."
- Unit 5: "10-64 received. I'll check in for details."
The use of 10-64 helps ensure that important messages are efficiently communicated to the appropriate personnel, facilitating timely responses to local incidents or requests for assistance.
