"-Where’s Warren now?
-Out on the state highway, I imagine.
-I told him to stop running that trap.
[...]

Warren, this is Sheriff Little.
Where are you? Over.

I’m just sitting out here on number 10, scratching, chewing.
Not doing much of nothing to speak of, over?

You wouldn’t be runing a Yankee trap, would you, Warren? Over.

No, Sheriff, I’m bird watching.

-Wrap it up, Warren. Bring it on in. Over.
-Ten-four."

Capcana în chestiune e un dispozitiv care-l avertizeză când cineva încalcă limita de viteză din statul respectiv. Nu am găsit niciunde acest "ten-four" ca posibil idiom... Să fie oare vorba despre oră?? "Ajung (la post) la 4 şi zece/4 fără zece."??? Nimic în film nu mă lasă să înţeleg chestia asta. În scena următoare, Warren prinde o maşină de New York care a încălcat viteza. Iar apoi nu mai e nicio scenă cu Warren care se întoarce la postul de poliţie. După mine, acest "ten-four" e mai degrabă un fel de răspuns afirmativ gen "roger/copy" dar aş vrea să fiu sigură, mai ales că nu-l găsesc niciunde...

Mulţumesc pentru ajutor!

"A code used by CB owners possibly since the dawn of amateur radio, the code 10-4 simply means "Message received". Since the 70s the code system have been popular in law-enforcement circles then evolved to what it is today. Nowadays when people use these codes, they are mostly refering to the police radio code system, which is more detailed then its original version, so I'am only listing the police code system here rather than the out dated CB code version."

agree Crisoi : n-avem in romana "doi-zece"? Dar asta e la inceput de receptie, nu la sfarsit. Nu stiu ce folosim la sfarsit!
