What does 10-98 mean in OPP radio communications?

• A. Assignment complete.
• B. In service.
• C. Urgent mission.
• D. Need assistance.

Answer: (A)

Ten-codes convey status on the radio, and 10-98 is used to indicate that the current assignment is finished and the officer is back in service, ready for a new call. This tells dispatch that the unit is no longer tied to that task and is available to respond to the next incident. The other states describe different conditions: being in service is a separate status, an urgent mission would use a higher-priority indicator, and needing assistance is a distress or help call. So 10-98 best matches “assignment complete.”
