TVI Filters are not uncommon in the Amateur Radio field. You might try the following web site for a start....

coppers of course
texastowers.com
hamradio.com

Try these two for starters. They are a few of the better places.

I bought a Henry, expensive but made very well, works very well.
I've got mine mounted right after the amp with a 6" coax before the meter and switchbox.

Are you talking rfi aka low pass filters or the little bullets that go onto tv input leads,and the only remedy for front end over load is dish or cable.I got an MFJ low pass filter its six years old and still working,but then I may have misunderstood completely and this foregoing diatribe is totally worthless,thank you.
