Albany County Radio IDs

Albany County Radio IDs

For the most part, Albany County radio IDs appear to have a standard structure. They are almost all 8 digits long. The last 4 appear to be differently assigned based on the agency or municipality. The first 4 seem to have a set format of 1XYY. All IDs start with the number 1. The second digit appears to indicate the type of agency. As observed so far 0 is for county agencies, 2 is for state and federal law enforcement, 3 is local law enforcement, 4 is for private or special location Fire Departments or brigades, 5 is for local fire departments, and 6 is for non-public safety. The 3rd and 4th digit appear to indicate the municipality. So far as observed 01 is Colonie, 02 is City of Albany, 06 is Cohoes, 07 is Green Island, 09 is Watervliet, 10 is New York State. There are some exceptions to this but this appear to be the case for most radios so far.
