He had to lean over the transmitter when he talked to you by radio.

So what?

That's one of the reasons you knew he fell against the netter when he keeled over.

You mentioned it when you played back that tape for us.

Well, I simply... You knew he did.

A heating element that was turned on when the mic was turned on.

See?

There.

Now you see, it's starting to glow.

Like a small coil on one of those electric heaters.

And believe me, it had nothing to do with transmitting a signal.

Instead, it was used to heat up a crystal of that chemical I mentioned to produce a deadly concentrated dose of carbon monoxide.

Johnny.
