Ed, This assumption that you antenna caused interference is not an unsual
phenominum. I had an instance where a neighbor on the next road over came to
our home claiming the antennas 9 Yagi antennas on 4 towers had captured all
the TV signals in our area and her TV signal was almost just snow because of
it. I and my wife listened to her complaint and I tried unsuccessfully to
explain A: TV signals are not attracted to my antennas like a magnet B: the
TV broadcast signals are not near the current commercial broadcast
frequency’s ( to no avail ) I offered to come over to there home and examine
there installation.
Apon my arrival it was at first asseratained there home was not using over
the air broadcast TV BUT Cable TV !!!!
In inspection in the basement the owner and son tried to become cable TV
distrabution engineeres. Unseccesfully IMHO
After removing not 3 but 4 3 way spliters and 8 uncompleted un crimped
connectors . After a trip to my home and returning with the proper tools I
reconfigured and MESS and installed the un fastened ground wire at the
entrance block.. WOW and all read SEVEN TV’s and one gaming console ??
Now had a acceptable siginal
This happened during the height of the 2nd Golf War and her husband was in the
service and in the Theater . As a VET prompted me to go above and beyond
GO figure

LOL....I had a similar instance....my beam is on a hazer on a 50 ft tower..I
could crank it up, and almost immediately get a call from my one neighbor about
interference to his tv, even though I wasn’t on the air.....yet I could operate
with it cranked down ( think closer to his house !) and never hear a peep from
him....
