Note: this radio system is not used by NYPD but the Housing Authority and PAPD (since 9/11/01).

wonder if Rudy will get to the bottom of this since he now works for Nextel on their "public safety peace corps"....

Where is the FCC in this picture? They should have been notified first.

Lovely job, Nextel.. not only do they use overpowered towers... they tilt their atennae downwards towards the ground, apparently in an attempt to reduce the "umbrella effect", where if you're too close to a tower, you won't pick up the signal off it, it overshoots you and you pick up the next closest tower. No wonder Nextel causes so much interference... and they don't even seem to care... or even admit they're at fault (but how could they NOT be?).
