If I remember correctly, they did find that a cell phone could cause severe interference to a VOR receiver if the electrical shielding on the wires connected to the VOR receiver had been removed or broken. It is perfectly plausible (in Mythbusters terms) to assume that if the shielding on the wiring had been broken, a cell phone could cause problems. I'm not saying it's likely, but plausible... maybe.
