There's a lot of nonsense posted in these forums, RR included. So take it all with a grain of salt. The ten code is not standardized, so what 10-35 means in one jurisdiction is not necessarily what it means in another. Someone in the RR thread mentioned that it meant there was some confidential information. In RSO's communications, it's usually used when dispatch has a hit on a suspect, and wants the deputy to remove himself and his radio from earshot, so that the confidential information can be given without the suspect over hearing it. But I'm sure one of the dispatcher members can expound upon that better than I.convE36 wrote:Also, check out this reply I got from "Cowthief" on the radioreference.com forums...makes very good sence....
"Hello.
10-35 simply ment talk-around in San Antonio in the era of UHF GE PE radios.
And, by what I heard, this was a discussion intended to make people think that they (police) do not know.
This is a very common ploy, throw out a few tiny tidbits that are of no real value, details that are easily traced, perhaps one digit off on a house number, that type of thing.
The usual use for this is to "track" informants, is the guy really on the inside track or just a good scanner buff?
Remember, police officer training deals in no small part on how to use the radio."
Look... going back to your original post, you asked for our thoughts on this. I gave you mine: There is this law that can be interpreted to say that you can't feed these things to the net, or otherwise divulge what you hear. But there's dozens of scanner feeds out there. If you continue, the most likely scenario is someone could ask you to remove it. I just thought you should be aware that if someone comes along and tells you to shut it down, the weight of law would be on their side, not yours. But no one has told you to shut it down yet. If you just stream dispatch talk groups, leave the i-calls and other confidential traffic out of it, no one is likely to bother you. If you keep posting stuff like this thread, you may be unpleasantly surprised at just how many people you've managed to piss off.
