gollywobbles
A term used to describe a digital voice transmission that is received in a fringe area and is pixelated, resulting in a low delivered audio quality (DAQ). In this condition, the decoded signal's bit error rate (BER) has exceeded a critical value. This results in strange sounds that sound like "gollywobbles" instead of understandable speech.
After the sheriff narrowbanded his radio system and went to digital, the dispatcher sounded like gollywobbles every time his deputies drove through the valley.
