Gaussian lock so stations swim up out of the noise instead of snapping, and
band-specific static because that is what makes a band feel like a place: AM
brown crackle, FM white hiss, SW a wandering bandpass plus a heterodyne whose
pitch IS the beat frequency, so it swoops down to nothing as you zero in.
THE STANDARD is deliberately just short of intelligible -- you can hear it is
speech and not what it says. THE SCREEN tells you what it says. That gap is the
trick, and subtitleBus is the wire that carries it.
NUMBERS speaks LANE-DATA's planted coordinates; generated filler is rejected if
it would decode onto real ground, so the only true coordinates on the band are
the deliberate ones.
