Dispatch Centers
The Colorado State Patrol operates five regional communications centers; Alamosa, Craig, Denver, Montrose, Pueblo. The CSP also operates a communications center dedicated to Executive Security ("Capitol Dispatch"). Most operations occur on DTRS. However, some troopers may use VHF channels in certain areas where DTRS coverage is weak.
Alamosa Dispatch
- Troop 5B
Craig Dispatch
- Troop 4B
- Troop 4C
Denver Dispatch
- Troop 1A
- Troop 1B (On 1C)
- Troop 1C
- Troop 1D
- Troop 1E
- Troop 3A
- Troop 3B
- Troop 3C
- Troop 3D
Montrose Dispatch
- Troop 4A
- Troop 5A
- Troop 5C
Pueblo Dispatch
- Troop 2A
- Troop 2B
- Troop 2C
- Troop 2D
- Troop 2E (On 2B)
Capitol Dispatch
- Troop 9B
Patching
Understanding patching is essential when trying to monitor CSP, especially for the troops covered by Denver Dispatch. Denver Dispatch does not have dispatchers for every single troop, so various talkgroups are always patched together in random combinations that change frequently. When this occurs, the system automatically redirects voice traffic from one talkgroup to a different talkgroup. Due to this, one will often hear several troops on the same talkgroup.
Scanner that do not support P25 patch following, such as Uniden scanners, may often be silent when attempting to monitor a single troop. This is the result of the voice traffic being redirected to the talkgroup that they are patched to. In order to monitor any particular troop covered by Denver Dispatch, you must monitor all the troops covered by Denver Dispatch.
Scanners which support P25 patch following will not run into this problem. Monitoring any particular troop will automatically be redirected to the correct talkgroup if it is patched and affiliated to the site you're monitoring.
Other dispatch centers may patch traffic to any talkgroup that they dispatch on. Examples include:
- Montrose Dispatch: Troop 5C and San Juan Sheriff's Office (TG 8591)
Codes
The following is a comprehensive list adopted from the Expanded APCO 10 Codes. While some of these codes are used, many 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).
