All the recommendations so far are about treating the symptoms, not
the cause of your trouble.  You should not have so much RF in the
shack.  A balun or unun at your antenna and/or where your feedline
enters the shack would stop RF flowing on the outside of your coax.  I
have no experience with this antenna, but it looks like the coax could
easily pick up  induced currents.
