From the majority of sources out there, I gathered that the radios worked but the range was to great to have continous contact between the troops holding the landing zone and those on the bridge.

The consequence was that the troops on the bridge were not aware that there would be a delays in reinforcements and supplies since the Germans were overrunning the drop zones. The troops on the ground could not contact HQ nor the supply planes.
