Sheriff’s Patrol units
+
   
 
 
SSO’s patrol units are divided into North, East and Central(South) Divisions. North Division is comprised of 4 districts, north of the Sacramento River. East Division, located in the Eastern part of the county, comprises two patrol districts, one being the Rancho Cordova Police Department, where SSO deputies patrol the confines of Rancho Cordova, in RCPD marked cars and uniforms, but are still deputy sheriffs and wear a deputy sheriff badge. The “Chief of Police” for RCPD is an SSO Captain, who is also in charge of the East Patrol Division as a whole. Central Division, located in the central/southern part ofthe county. is comprised of two patrol districts, Central and South. Various Specialty and support sections/units are included in Field Services.
 
 
 
Sheriff patrol callsigns are comprised of a number-number-letter-number combination. The first number denotes the district(1-8) the 2nd number denotes the beat within the district, the letter denotes the shift(discussed below), and the final number(1-2) identifies the number of officers in the car. I believe if there is a field training trainee in the car, the number may still be 1. Often the final number is not voiced on the radio.

SSO Shifts
 
 
 
Patrol Shifts are divided into 3 watches, Day, Swing, and Graveyard, 10 hours in length. Each watch is further divided to make 6 patrol teams to allow for days off. Watches are overlapped by about 2 hours to allow for efficient/safe shift changeovers

Frank/Ed- Graveyard shift (2200-0800)
 
 
 
 
 
Specialty units: Most speciality units, such as Gangs, POP, etc, are named somewhat plainly over radio, such as GANGXX, POPXX, with the numbers matching the patrol district they are matching, with a somewhat random 2nd number. For example, a Gang Unit working in district 6 might be called as GANG62.

SJ41 San Juan 41. San Juan “Safe Schools” assignment in District 4.
 
 
 
SSO also provides overtime/off-duty patrol to various neighborhoods, restaurants, etc. Usually these units will use a abbreviation/name of the job, followed by a 1-2 digit number that matches the patrol division the location is in.

Special Enforcement Detail(SED)
 
 
 
SED is the department's full time SWAT Team. The team is comprised of approximately 20 operators, 2 sergeants, and several former members as auxiliaries. When not on a callout, the team, both singularly and in pairs, will work patrol, both in marked and unmarked vehicles, mainly in crime suppression or serving warrants.
 
 
 
SED members on patrol will use patrol callsigns in the 90 series(i.e 97E, 90S, L90).
 
 
 
Centralized Investigation Division(CID)
 
 
 
CID has a variety of sections, such as Homicide, Crimes Against Persons, Crimes against Property, Sexual and Elder Abuse, etc
 
 
 
All CID units, as far as I’m aware, go by "Union", followed by a 3 digit number beginning at either 100 or 200. Numbers are divided by assignment, for example:
 
 
 
2XX-Homicide Bureau
 
3XX-Robbery Bureau
 
4XX-Sexual Assault and Elder Abuse Bureau
 
5XX-Child Abuse Bureau
 
6XX-Major Crimes Bureau(Fugitive Apprehension/Warrant Squad)
 
7XX-Property Crimes Bureau
 
8XX-Crimes Against Persons Bureau
 
In addition, there may be smaller units that use different callsigns, or are tied in to an existing bureau's callsigns
 
 
 
SSO Administration and Staff officers use callsigns beginning with either "STAFF" or "SSD". For example, the PIO goes by Staff210.
 
 
 
Jail Deputies, at least from the Main Jail, go by Jail/JL(###)
