Or because one of your neighbors is afraid that THEY are listening to 
him, so he runs a jammer.

CSB 1:
There was an area close to where my wife used to live that was a 
complete dead zone as far as cell phone signals were concerned.  We'd 
routinely see trucks from the various cell-phone carriers drive by with 
all kinds of anntennas on the roofs.  They apparently found that the 
culprit was some old lady with a malfunctioning black and white TV from 
the 60s.

CSB 2:
I have a neighbor who must have a deffective piece of electronics or 
very high-powered industrial equipment in his basement as I get regular 
burts of EM noise that mess my wifi, 6GHz cordless phone and cell phone 
signals equally badly, and it's not something in my house (e.g. fridge 
or microwave oven).  My wife and I joke that one of our neighbors must 
be an alien trying to phone home.
