I buy a cheap lightning protection unit that has CATV connectors on it, and
plug all the gear into that. I also route the TV antenna connection through
it.

That grounds the TV feedline to the power line ground.

If you add a couple .01uF UL/CSA/VDE rated line bypass caps from each side
of the power line to ground, it does more than ANY series RF choke would
ever do.
