I found it really odd not only that the set dresser wouldn't have found 
a Motorola packset or something more realistic as a cop radio, but  that 
it was a mismatched pair like would be found in a real hams shack.   And 
she not only turned off the NCX-3 with the proper knob but also the 
power switch on the HP-23.
