I don't know if this is a Montgomery County thing or a PA thing but what exactly are 27s and 29s?

"29 is negative on that subject"

Cops and dispatchers being so lazy that they abbreviate the abbreviations. These are ten-codes with the "10" part dropped.

n3obl correctly defines the meaning of 10-27, 10-28, and 10-29.

It's kinda like a trucker asking "what's your 20?"

This is done to save "airtime" to free up the frequency for other priority traffic. :)
