Codes and signals are not standardized. Each department has their own version of both ten codes and signals.

For instance, Signal 61 for the Tampa Police Department would mean that there is an airport emergency. There is an international airport as well as other smaller airports in Tampa. If a city did not have an airport, it would make little sense for them to have a code for an airport emergency.

The Indiana State Police use Signal 61 to mean homicide.

The Dallas Police use Signal 61 to mean foot patrol.

To find out codes and signals for a specific area, you can call the local police department and ask. Many will supply you with a sheet or direct you to a website, as they are all a matter of public record.
