Which channel corresponds to North Central?

The concept here is how radio channels are mapped to geographic areas so you reach the right units quickly. North Central has its own designated channel, which is Channel 6, so using Channel 6 ensures you communicate directly with North Central units without crossing into other zones. The other channels—Channel 4, Channel 5, and Channel 7—are assigned to different areas, so they wouldn’t correctly reach North Central and would create unnecessary cross-area traffic. Keeping the correct geographic-channel pairing handy makes responses faster and clearer.
