Thanks for pointing out the typo. The chirping noise is definitively the cores. I hadn't considered the source of the frequency, though, which must be a few khz. Maybe only some of the cores vibrate and you hear when a specific line or column is addressed! I will dig out my bat ultasound detector and see if there is a lot of noise at 60 khz.
also core memory making noise - it seems like that would be a bigger part of the received lore if it was normal function. It's not obvious how that correlates w/60k pixels/sec. I wonder if it's an audible freq power converter modulated at rate of 180 projections/25 seconds.
