I used mine today with my phone on in my pocket. Hade GB Pro at max sens or dang close to it all day. Ran like a top!! The GB Pro/G@ don't suffer EMI like most machines do.

Cellphones can emit interference that you might not even be aware of, and can result in loss of depth.
I had a buddy awhile back w/ a T2 who had extreme difficulty getting his machine to ground balance. We were in a very remote rural area where there was not ANY noticeable mechanical issues that would have caused any interference.
I recommended that he turn his cellphone off, and his groundbalancing issues went away thereafter.
For me, just knowing that cellphones MIGHT be an issue is enough to make me leave the phone in the car, or turn it off, just to be on the safe side....
