Well, my antenna is closer to my neighbor's driveway than to my own.
When I am not driving it, I keep my car in the garage (under the house
and on the other side from the room with the TV). My neighbor, OTOH,
does not use his garage for his cars--at least AFAIK--although he does
park in his driveway. I think either of his cars would be too big to
fit into his garage. My neighbor has also built a huge stack of
firewood--it measures ~6' high by 40' long by 16-in. thick--right ON
the property line. (I call it southeastern New England's largest mouse
farm.) He told me it is 2-1/2 cords. As far as I can tell, the guy who
sold him the wood cheated him; I think it is more like 1-1/2 cords. I
suppose that my neighbor's cars and firewood could easily be affecting
my TV reception.

My DTV reception is affected by where I park my car in the driveway.
My TV antenna is adjacent to my driveway. So depending on what DTV
channels I want to receive, I park my car in a certain position,

I really hated to move the car this morning, as it was really hot on
WSBK-DT, which I was really having trouble with!
