Maybe they did try.

While the location was next to a window, I'm willing to bet that the 
multipath was probably vicious in that location. The window faced 
west, looking toward the strip; the building blocked signals from 
Black Mountain. It is likely that there were some very strong echos 
off of some of the bigger hotels on the strip, possibly stronger than 
the actual signal. And the window appeared to have the same metalized 
tinting used on so many buildings in Vegas.
