For radios using an RJ-45 jack for the mic connector, is there any advantage
to using shielded twisted pair when connecting a tracker?  STP patch cables
are a lot harder to find (and more expensive) than the more common UTP
ones... just curious if it makes any difference.  I think I've heard it
mentioned that you want STP for extending the remote on the D700, but I'm
talking about a 3' audio connection.
