CSP Talkgroups & Dispatch Centers

The Colorado State Patrol operates five regional Communications/Dispatch centers situated in Lakewood ("Denver Dispatch"), Pueblo, Alamosa, Montrose and Craig. Most operations occur on DTRS. However, some troopers may use VHF channels in certain areas where DTRS coverage is weak.

  • "Denver Dispatch"

"Denver dispatch" covers Troops 1-A/C/D/E and 3-A/B/C. "Denver Dispatch" does not have dispatchers for every single troop, so various Talkgroups for Troops 1-A/C/D/E and 3-A/B/C are always patched together in random combinations that change frequently. As such it is impossible to regularly monitor individual Troops covered by Denver Dispatch in isolation. If you want to monitor a particular Troop covered by Denver Dispatch, you basically have to monitor all DTRS talkgroups used by Troops 1-A/C/D/E and 3-A/B/C.

CSP 10-Code List

Although the following is a comprehensive list of all known CSP 10-Codes, many of these codes are rarely used and some have likely been phased-out. Troopers always begin their transmission with the Regional Dispatch Center they are calling, followed by call sign, followed by their request/info. (i.e. "Denver 1 Adam 17 clear PA" means unit 1 Adam 17 is calling Denver Dispatch to advise he/she finished their traffic stop with a penalty assessment).
