What usually causes this in an apatment is that someone has their "rabbit
ears" connected in paralell with the input to their TV. I discovered this
when I was in the USAF and they installed cabel in the barracks. By
connecting the cable to a set of rabbit ears we were able to broadcast the
signal from the second floor to rooms about 3 or 4 doors each way on the
first second and third floors. No fuzzy pictures either. Later someone
connected an antenna directly to the main cable instead of off a splitter so
the whole barracks could get free TV.

I recently made a TV antenna, and strangely it seems to pick
up some cable channels like VH1 and TNT. They're a bit
snowy, but they're definitely there. Does anyone know why
this might be? I live in an apartment, so could I be
getting signals from someone else's wires?

Thanks
