I'm not very aware of the difference of * and #, but I found out the bot not responding when PMing, so I decided to stay consistent and use * everywhere.

yet both returns are in $chan output would it be wise to use

That depends on what theory lies behind # and *. It's obviously I don't know

You
please tell me, I might have some work to do afterwards

or use

and change all $chan to $1

RipperRoo already explained it should be $2. But I like to point out also that it could have been !massvoice *:#: in my knowledge. Or you have to prove me the opposite. Again, I don't know the diff.

which will enable the trigger "!massvoice #channame" in any format
I take it this would work: please advise

The first version uses the syntax as you just described, but I removed that in the second just for the sake of usability.
RaDiOBoT in fact only controls #pctechtalk.com, therefore it's useless for me to have to type !massvoice #pctechtalk.com if I'm in #pctechtalk.com.
I just require you to be in the channel you want to mass(de)voice. And to prevent misuse I also require you to have yourself the permissions to do it.
