Of course not. RFI is received by ANTENNAS, not wiring in the station. 
The things that ARE important are 1) proper bonding of all equipment in 
the station; 2) bonding of the station to all grounds in the home; 3) 
elimination of all noise sources in your home, and 4) application of 
effective ferrite chokes to those sources you can't elimnate.
