ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY, NOVEMBER 22, 1963, DALLAS, TEXAS
By letter dated July 16, 1964, the President's Commission referred to a memorandum captioned "Dallas, Texas, March 23, 1964." This memorandum contained the transcripts of all radio transmissions from Channel 1 and Channel 2 of the Dallas Police Department radio station covering the period from 10:00 A.M., November 22, 1963, to 6:00 P.M., November 24, 1963, as they relate to the assassination of President KENNEDY, the murder of Dallas Police Officer J. D. TIPPIT, investi-gations of said assassination and murder, and the security and movement of LEE HARVEY OSWALD to the Dallas County Jail.
The President's Commission letter advised that in view of the importance of these transcripts, it was desired that the Federal Bureau of Investigation obtain the original tapes of the radio broadcasts and a new transcript be prepared from these tapes for the period 10:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. on Friday, November 22, 1963, and from 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. on Sunday, November 24, 1963. The President's Commission letter requested that the name of the reporting police officer be listed alongside each message.
On July 21, 1964, Chief of Police JESSE E. CURRY, -Dallas Police Department, Dallas, Texas, made available to a Special Agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation the original recordings reflecting the radio transmissions of Channel 1 and Channel 2 of Dallas Police Department Radio Station KEB 364 for the above-described period, and these recordings were reviewed by a Special Agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation on July 21, 22, 23 and 24, 1964, at the Dallas Police Department.

The radio transmissions for the period 10:00 A.M. to
3:00 P.M. on November 22, 1963, and 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. on
November 24, 1963, cn Channel 1 of Dallas Police Radio Station
N.X3 364 were recorded on dictabelts using "Dictaphones" pur-
chased by the Dallas Police Department in 1957. These dicta-
bolts are badly worn from being played and, in many places,
the dictabelt skips and some of the messages are garbled.
The radio transmissions for the period 10:00 A.M. to
3:00 P.M. on November 22, 1963, on Channel 2 of Dallas Police
Radio Station KIM 364 were recorded on a "Gray Audograph"
recorder using 81/4" flexible Celluloid discs This equipment
was purchased by the Dallas Police Department in the early
1950's. It was noted that these discs are badly warn from
being played. In many places, the discs skip and portions of
the messages are garbled.
On July 21, 1964, Lieutenant.D.H...GASSETT, Plateau Commander,
Dallas Police Department, advised that on November 22, 1963,
between the hours of 10:00 A.M. and 3:00 P.M., three radio
dispatchers were on duty at the Dallas Police Department at the
same tire. Ho stated that two dispatchers handled Channel 1,
each working an opposite side of the radio console which
separated one dispatcher from the sight of the other. On this
radio console, above each dispatcher, are a series of knobs with
a unit number assigned to each knob. The purpose of the knobs
is to indicate Which units are "in service" and Which units are
"cut of service." Upon being contacted by any of the units the
dispatcher, in addition to replying to the unit calling, adjusts
the knob relating to the unit calling, to either the "in service"
or "out of service" position.
The third radio dispatcher's position is located at
one end of the radio console. This position is for the Channel
2 dispatcher. Channel 2 is usually used only When a special
situation is anticipated, as was the case on November 22, 1963,
during the Presidential motorcade. This relieves the volume of

radio traffic on Channel 1 and permits those dispatchers to
handle other traffic with greater ease.
Lieutenant GASSETC advised that each dispatcher has
a time stamp clock before him and pointed out theSe clocks
are not synchronized. He demonstrated by simultaneously time
stamping a blank piece of paper, using two of the clocks. It
wz.5. noted that one clock stamped the time as 11:16 A.M. and
that the other clock stamped the time as 11:17 A.M. He stated
this would explain a time element variation between Channel 1
and Channel 2. He further pointed out that the position of
the hands on the clock appear different, depending on the angle.
of sight from which one is looking at the clock. He stated a
short person would have a different angle of sight than a tall
parson. Lieutenant GASSETT stated this quite probably could
explain the time element variation of the shooting of Officer
J. D. TIPPIT with the Channel 1 entry indicating the approxi-
mate time as 1:16 P.M. and the Channel 2 entry indicating the
approximate time as 1:18 P.M.
Lieutenant GASSETT also pointed out that the infor-
mation relating to the shooting of Officer TIPPIT was broadcast
to the Dallas Police Department on Channel 1 by a citizen using
Officer TIPPIT's police car radio, Which is a different radio
frequency than Channel 2. He stated that this same information
was then rebroadcast on Channel 2, which could also explain the
time element variation between 1:16 P.M. and 1:1$ P.M.
The following is a transcript of the radio transmissions
from Channel 1 and Channel 2 of the Dallas Police Radio Station
XI:3 364 for the periods 10:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. on November 22,
1963, and 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. on November 24, 1963, it being
noted that Channel 2 was not operating during the period 10:00
A.M. to 2:00 P.M. on November 24, 1963, as they relate to the
assassination of President KENNEDY, murder of Dallas Police
Officer J. D. TIPPIT, investigations of said assassination and
murder, and the security and movement of LEE HARVEY OSWALD to
the Dallas County Jail:
