Unknown callsign codes

Post by haro_chik »

I've seen a heap of callsigns that I was wondering where they're from. Some of them aren't that old:

BZ101 (blue paddy wagon, Holden CT Rodeo)
DM108 (white paddy wagon, Ford Falcon)
DX (sedan, Holden VZ Commodore)
EL (4WD)
GB
GF104 (stationwagon, Holden VY Commodore)
GH101 (sedan, Holden VZ Commodore) + GH102 (blue paddy wagon, Holden CT Rodeo)
HC101 (white paddy wagon, Ford Falcon) + 2 more
HS205 (sedan, Holden VY Commodore)
HV401 (blue paddy wagon, Holden CT Rodeo)
HW102 (white paddy wagon, Ford Falcon)
JT103 (sedan, Holden VZ Commodore)
KH
MC
MW106 (sedan, Holden VY Commodore)
NE206 (sedan)
NS207 (sedan, Holden VY Commodore)
PL
TD204 + 404 (sedan, Holden VY Commodore)
VQ
VS104 (sedan) + VS105 (stationwagon)
WS104 (sedan)
XO
ZL
ZW

I used to write down new callsigns and just found this list on an old notepad. Curious to know where they're from.

How long ago do you think you wrote those down? Some seem a little out of the ordinary possibly retired.

I think some of them are from the last two years.

So is City Support the guys on foot? I think I heard that listening to the CB.

Not quite. City Support as I understand it are the guys looking after the CCTV cameras around the CBD. They help the guys on foot (or bikes) to catch whoever it is they are after.

From memory, I thought they were GC020.
