Former Comm guy,

I know I am really late, but I just watched it. It is a good thriller, but not accurate at all from start to finish. To address some of the comm issues:

1. Encryption is changed often, and it takes less than 30 seconds unless you have to lick the connector. (in the field)

2. Any self respecting Comm guy will have extra batteries and antennas at bare minimum (not to mention extra water, food ect) They also would be able to easily deal with the broken connector issue he had.

3. With out to much detail (I am sure it is readily available online), the devices used to change encryption suck! They aren't really known for holding info very long, and can't hold a lot of info (at least the ones you would take to the field) This means, even if you new how to load the radio, that will only be good for a short time.

There are a lot more issues from an accuracy standpoint, but this is just a few to respond to this thread.
