cable sheilding

[merc-blue]

i am just building some USB sim cables and was wondering if its worth using sheilded cables or not?
taking out the Xtal should stop the TX transmitting anyway right?

I don't think there is any reason to use or not to use shielded cable frankly.

Whatever you have a reel of probably :D
