The start pulse isn't missing, otherwise there'd be no printing. What the machine interprets as a start bit is the first bit that opens the loop. I think the difference in the two presentations in the link is mostly due to the 555 RY gen sending a 1-bit-length stop bit but the radio RYs are using something longer (1.5 bit length stop bit or even 2.0).

Since the Start pulse is missing when using the "RY Generator" the
machine does react a little differently. See
