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'm willing to bet that only lasted until the base frequency management
office started getting complaints of interference on some of the
tactical FM gear, at which point they'd DF it to your barracks building.
Someone probably received a large boot in the backside as a result....
