Wrong radio

Remember, we're talking about an industry that thinks highly charged ionization layers due to solar activity permits someone to talk to someone else through time... on an SB-301 receiver and a busted up Yagi.

You're not supposed to pay attention to the little details like that.

In midnight run De Niro listened to the Duke's phone calls on an old Yaesu FT-209 HT.

Which Die Hard?

In the original, they're using Kenwood HT's (70 cm I thought, but whatever) but pretending they're CB HT's. And that's the LAPD, not the NYPD.
In Die Hard II: Experiencing a DC Airport in a Holiday, they're using the very same Kenwood HT's as miltary-issue VHF radios.
I don't recall offhand what they used in Die Hard III: Take The Magic Trucks to Manhatten, it's kind of hard to tell.

Nor am I sure what they used in Die Hard 4: I'm a Mac, You're a Terrorist.

Ah yes.... ! funny you should mention "301"..... reminded me of some bad hollywood movie I saw on T.V. a year or so ago. It was so bad I can't even remember the title of it.... one of the plot scenes showed a small desert town sheriff's department that was attempting to contact one of it's patrol cars using a Yaesu FT-301 transceiver !! .....talk about intruders on amateur frequencies....
