Tonight, we are returning to the Friday Night Trivia Net's Question Category: "U-Pick-Em: A or B".
Basically, we will give you 2 Answers per Question and you pick the correct one -- either A or B.
Today is/was October 9th, the 282th day of 2015 -- often commonly abbreviated as "10-9".
Did you know that "10-9" is also used in the US by many local, state, and national service agencies (like Police and Fire Departments, 911 Dispatchers) in radio communications to mean "Repeat" (message)?
Organized in 1935, APCO (currently named the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials*) developed a "standardized" list of short coded radio phrases to convey tactical information quickly and clearly among various Police personnel and radio dispatchers.
These coded phrases were originally called the APCO "10 Codes".
Updated in 1974 and currently used by many Served-Agencies across the US and other countries, the Expanded APCO 10 Codes now number 100.
For example, in most jurisdictions, "10-4" means "Message received", "10-6" means "Station is busy", "10-7" means "Out of Service", while "10-33" usually means "Emergency" or even "Officer needs assistance".
So, how much do you know about the 10 Codes?
Please give us your best answer for each of the following 3 A or B questions, by picking the (reuseable) answers of "A"= A or "B"= B.
Good Luck and remember, YOU are always a WINNER with us, regardless of your actual answers!
OK, I will "10-9" these questions!
