What does the code 10-26 refer to?

The code 10-26 refers to "Message Received." This designation is essential for clear communication among law enforcement personnel. When an officer uses this code, it indicates they have received information or instructions from dispatch or another officer, confirming that they acknowledged the message. This helps ensure efficient and effective communication in the field, fostering a better understanding of ongoing situations and facilitating coordinated responses.

The other options represent different communications or actions that are not aligned with the purpose of 10-26. For instance, "Check Registration" and "Standby at/For" are tasks or directives but do not pertain to the acknowledgment of message receipt. "Violation Rules/Regulation" refers to compliance issues and is unrelated to communication codes, further differentiating it from the meaning of 10-26.
