Facts like the fact the 911 commission didn’t point out a single flaw with the NYPD radios? It’s true that the fire department radios not working in the twin towers was cited as a problem in 1993. It’s true that Rudy got them replaced on a no bid contract and they still failed, unlike the police radios (so the size of the building isn’t really a valid excuse.)

This part:

As of 2001, the NYPD used Ultra High Frequency (UHF) radios and divided the city into 35 radio zones. Most hand-held radios had at least 20 channels: while not all officers had all channels, all officers had the ability to communicate citywide.[9]
