Description: This study compares use of a ten code system to clear speech communication. By random sample technique, the error factor of both systems is determined. Test results indicate that clear speech transmissions, insofar as the Lakewood Police Department study is concerned, are more error free than a code system -- even with refresher training. Another factor developed by the study is that clear speed messages, using abbreviated sentences, require less transmission time than coded messages.
