here's a possibility! you would have to genearte a map of your apartment with the directions of the stations you want

marked on it. Vital if we are to figure out 'how impossible' / possible it all is

then try a pr of rabbit ears / a solid foled dipole on a stand

we'll also then know if you can use a - rhombic - or two (room or ceiling area is a factor). made of lengths of wire <> each side needing to be about 11 ft long if possible and one end is the direction of the antenna. you can pin it tightly to the ceiling or under a BIG rug.

the other alternative is a smallish yagi hung close to a ceiling, on fishing lines / etc. to orient it.
