Bonus points if there’s a known onomatopoeia to describe the sound.

    I’ve come to refer to it as static/snow but I specifically remember hearing it called ants/ant races as a child some 40 years ago. The husband of the elderly couple that took care of us base kids would insist he had a favorite and could tell if it was winning.

    I get some strange comfort that it is called that by others and wasn’t some abstraction of my memory
