Hah, that is really funny. YOU BOLDED THE WRONG PART. It was the other (obvious) part he was referring to.
No, you are as usual flaunting your reading impairment in public. The bolded part is bolded because it is there he/she makes the statement inferred from the first part, to which I agree.
Channel 1, which carried routine police radio traffic, it was NOT being used by any of the motorcycles in the motorcade.
The mike was stucked on that channel, not used.
Channel 2 was used for the Presidential motorcade traffic.
Yes?
If gunfire was going to be recorded at all, it would have been on Ch2 not Ch1. This is a really big clue as to why the dictabelt recordings are worse than useless as evidence of anything.
Not if this particular mike was stucked on channel-1, no. Not during the ca five minutes it was stucked, no.
IMO, and in the opinions of most people who have an ounce of commonsense, the open mic on Ch1 was most likely on a Police motorcycle parked in an underground garage being used as a Police staging area the Trade Mart, and here are the reasons why this is the case:
a. On the dictabelt channel is the sound of motorcycle sirens. That sound is heard to rise in pitch, and then fall in pitch, the classic result of the Doppler Effect as the vehicle sounding the siren, first approaches the microphone, and then recedes from it. That would put the microphone somewhere between Dealey Plaza and Parklands hospital - Trade Mart was between Dealey Plaza and Parklands Hospital. If the open microphone had been on Officer HB McLeans's motorcycle, or indeed on any of the other escort motorcycles, the sirens would have been heard at a steady pitch, with no Doppler Effect.
Wrong. The mike on the bike could as well have been passing the sirens on the Stemmons freeway on its way to Parkland. McLain was one of the first officers on the spot, helping Mrs. Kennedy out of the limo at Parkland. It could also be sirens traveling in the opposite direction since both the chief of DPD and the chief of the Sheriffs Department radioed their troops to the area behind the picket fence seconds after the shooting.
Ca 3-4 minutes in to the 5 minutes the stuck mike was recording, the HQ radio operator asked every officer on channel-2 to tell the officer on Stemmons Freeway with the stuck mike occupying channel-1, to turn it of. How did the operator know it was on the Stemmons Freeway? All the sirens.
b. Officer McLain said that he heard DPD Chief Curry give the order "Go to the hospital..." That broadcast by Chief Curry was on Ch2. If McLain's radio was jamming Ch1, how could he hear a message on Ch2? When the microphone on, the transmitter is keyed and the receiver does not receive anything.
I wouldn’t trust anything McLain was saying he ”remembered”.
1. Memory fades as time goes by. Especially when it comes to details.
2. McLain are himself admitting that he did ’adjust’ his ’memory’ when realizing it lends itself to the conclusion that the assassination was performed by a conspiracy, which he is reportedly firmly rejecting.
3. Looking at a presentation from Donald Thomas at AARC, in the round of questions after the presentation, a woman in the public are telling the auditorium that she met McLain in Dallas. He had told her that government guys from the get go was at the DPD HQ telling the officers what they had seen and not seen. Very intimidating. (36.59)

c. Steve Barber, an outstanding and knowledgeable researcher, and a trained musician was able to pick out a vital phrase on Ch1. Right at the point in the recording when the shots were supposed to have been found by the HSCA's audio experts, he heard a barely audible transmission, a voice saying "Hold everything secure...until Homicide and other investigators can get there........" . That transmission was actually made by Sheriff Decker, and that transmission had actually been made on channel 2, and further, this statement was known to have been made well after the shooting had already occurred. This timing was confirmed by the appearance of the "Stemmens Phrase", clearly heard later on both channels.
Yes, this crosstalk would be proof of the cha-1 recording of the suspect five impulsepatterns being recorded ca 1 minute after the real event IF THE TWO CHANNELS WAS IN SYNC. They were NOT in sync.
If instead using the crosstalk closest to the real event, ”I’ll check it”, the match is perfect. The five suspect rifle shots are recorded exactly in the time span where the real shooting took place. End of story.
Now the question was "How did Sheriff Decker's voice come to be recorded on the wrong channel, at the exact time the shooting occurred?"
I’m afraid that you haven’t grasped even the most basics of the material you are discussing with such a fervor.
No, Deckers voice was recorded on ”the wrong channel” (crosstalk) ca one minute after the five suspect impulsepatterns. Since Decker is ordering his men up on the knoll seconds after the shooting it is a good marker for the real shooting event = the five suspect impulse patterns was recorded one minute after the real event. IF in sync.
The answer to that is very simple.
At the Trade Mart, in the Police staging area, there was a loudspeaker mounted on a pillar. That speaker was blasting out the transmissions of the motorcade radio traffic on Ch 2. The open mic on Ch 1 was picking up these sounds, static and general noise in and around the Trade Mart. It was almost certainly the three-wheeler motorcycle of DPD Officer Leslie Beilharz (who was assigned to the area around the Trade Mart) who had the stuck microphone. Beilharz was well known as having a habit of "whistling while he worked" and someone whistling is heard on the dictabelt channel.
And that about wraps it up for the dictabelt (so-called) evidence.
As I said, the Decker crosstalk position on channel-1 is not in sync.
End of story.
And no, no Trade Mart loud speaker needed for crosstalk to appear. It happened all the time everywhere with police radios relatively close to each other.
And, yes, McLain testified to the HSCA that his mike had a chronic tendency to get stuck all the time. And, he testified that he would probably have been on channel-1 during the motorcade.
Sworn testimony.
is incorrect in claiming a bullet from the front?
