You may not be able to _use_ the cell phone to make a call, but when
it is on, it is still transmitting in an attempt to connect to a
cell.
It's those transmissions that would be causing the interference.

That's assuming that they really do interfere. I've forgotten to turn
my phone off plenty of times while fying, and I have a Motorola Nextel
phone which interferes with everything (it sets speakers off in
doctor's offices). Yet it doesn't seem to interfere with the Century
2000 or CNX80 in the planes I fly when left on my hip at a max distance
of maybe 3' from the electronics or the antennas...

Not all devices interfere with all other devices.


Maybe I'm just a skeptic....

Nothing wrong with that. ------------------------------+
