Can cell phone towers interfere with TV reception?
Yes, it’s true that LTE signals from local cell towers can interfere with TV antenna reception. This is because LTE is now carried on frequencies that used to be used for television, and so if an antenna isn’t designed to block those signals there can be problems.
What may cause signal interference?

What causes GPS interference?
GPS interference can come from a variety of sources, including radio emissions in nearby bands, intentional or unintentional jamming, and naturally occurring space weather.
What can interfere with GPS signal?
Several factors interfere with a GPS signal: dense clouds, dust particles, natural elements such as mountains, and even man-made flying objects, such as airplanes. If the GPS devices are being used underwater such as in submarines, the distance becomes too long for the radio signals to retain their strength.
