Don't know. What kind of indoor antenna? Most of the ones designed for indoors, such as the pretty-good-for-what-it-is Sensor type, don't have a great reflector. I'm wondering if the metal in the bricks is acting like a half-assed reflector to some extent... The reflector makes a huge difference when done properly. I recommend trying a small outdoor antenna if you're still annoyed, used indoors I mean, they can be quite small and not too ugly.

For an experiment, try adjusting the antenna spacing above the bricks.
