Great work. It appears as though the story was syndicated and thus the exact verbatim text (with the ham radio reference) appears in numerous news outlets. But I see that most of them are gone now.

"Federal investigators are also accelerating efforts to determine whether the assault was planned, coordinated or led by groups of people — rather than an impulsive outburst of violence — particularly because some of the men shown on video laying siege to the building were equipped with handheld radios and at times appeared to work in unison on particular objectives, investigators said.
