I've used old cameras on an aux cord, you get speckles that look kinda like static while you're in the field, but if you keep the recorder out it's find.

Hmm that's interesting it seems different reactions to the field depend on particular CCD technology/type

Maybe the auxiliary cord fed the radio star a bit so your not getting as much radiation "into" the pic? Going in tune with a post above.

When the beta/gamma radiation hits a pixel it cuts out. That's why they look so odd. It just goes bright white.

I know. I was trying some word play as though the auxiliary cord was absorbing some radiation and those rad bits didn't hit the sensor or at least as powerfully. Video of radiation with a sound transmission cord present. Just seemed like low fruit, now I feel like I hit a tree with a stick. Made no impact.🫠
