short-duration interference noise in radio at cold starts S70 1999

'99 S70 T5, 90,000 Miles. During the past week, when the radio is turned on right after the engine is started, there is a high-pitched RF interference-type noise overlaid on what I'm hearing from the radio. Noise quits after 20-30 seconds, and does not show up when engine is later started while still warm. Ambient temperatures ranging from 12-35F.
Anybody have a clue as to what temperature-related gizmo is the likely culprit, and how close I might be to that gizmo failing and leaving me a chapped pedestrian? Any idea whether pulling codes while cold, then later while hot, would help with differential diagnosis?
Thanks.
