Victoria Police VHF Radio

Regional Stations on VHF

Ø       Stations which are "non-24" may still have a night-shift working, just because they are not 24-hour does not mean they may not be open a/h. (Watch Blue Heelers for an example of this)

 

Ø       Stations which are "1 up or 1 man" have a member on-call after hours. These are the old-fashioned 24 hour live-in police stations where an officer lives at and/or near the local Police Station is available on-call 24/7, even though the actual Police Station Public Entrance may be closed.

 

Ø       Police Station codes have been listed for completeness -these are used internally by Vic Police and Intergraph, and may be heard on-air occasionally.

 

Ø       Victoria Police use VHF for officer control throughout Regions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, which contain Operational Districts L, M, N, O, P and Q.

 

Ø       The 3 letter (District& Station) code in column two appears on all Charge Sheets (The blue forms you get if charged with a criminal offence) and Traffic and Other Fine Notices (Infringement notices, where an officer either charges or fines you for an criminal, traffic or other minor offence (littering, drinking in non-alcohol zone etc). It appears near or next to the fining/charging officer’s name.

 

Ø       Bold Italics is for that District’s Radio Dispatch (VKC) Centre

 

Ø       Channel listed in brackets are actual channels displayed on police radios. Please use the VHF/Country Frequency Page for frequency information
