One TV failing could back feed interference into the others. Isolating one TV to a test antenna with no amplifier would be my next step. If all TVs fail the same in this configuration, it suggests interference via an over the air path. If only the test TV fails, you're closing in on the culprit. If all but the test TV fail, you're still making logical progress, one of the TVs or a common part in the cabling is suspect.
