Police Radio Nicknames

Police radio nicknames, often referred to as "radio codes" or "radio lingo," are informal or semi-official phrases used by law enforcement officers to communicate efficiently and discreetly over radio channels. These nicknames can refer to specific types of incidents, people, locations, or actions. They help officers quickly convey complex information without needing lengthy explanations, often providing a level of confidentiality.
