He sites a peer reviewed paper by C.S. Chen. I do not have access to the full article. The abstract clearly says "blue shift" and "red shift". Lyndon Ashmore's https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228730621_Intrinsic_Plasma_Redshifts_Now_Reproduced_In_The_Laboratory-a_Discussion_in_Terms_of_New_Tired_Light (page 2, left column, second paragraph) claims Chen's research shows no blue shift. That looks like a contradiction.

Here you can find his publication to download. I have bought and read the book: really interesting

Well if he is writing about "tired light", I wouldn't take his writings too seriously because tired light is not a correct idea/theory

If red shift is called "tired" then blue shift would have to be "wakeful". No wonder those ideas have no credence these days.

Tired light in a static universe predicts a constant shift in wavelength - while what is observed are doppler shifts, change in wavelength increasing with wavelength...
