What we have repetadly found is that the radio in the office can
receive long after the radio in the street has stopped receiving. (The
person with the radio in the street is moving away from the office.)

The radios are the same and the power supplies to the radios are the
same. Indeed switching the radios gives the same effect.

Is your office in a concrete building? Or one with any steel reinforcement
or steel or aluminum studs? If so, it could well be that there is a
standing wave issue, so that a portion of your transmitted signal is being
reflected back, and so not making it to the receiver. This would not
necessarily affect the reception on the radio in the office from the outside
radio.
