I put a signal attenuator (outside) on the incoming cable TV coax
cable in order to reduce the signal strength in the coax cables
inside my house.

The cable TV company assumes that you will be connecting
up to 6 items to your cable coax, so they send a strong
enough signal for all 6 of those items.  We only have 1
thing connected to our cable (one television), so we don't
need all that signal strength.  So I experimented with
different attenuators until I had sufficient signal strength
for that one TV, but no more.

This did help my symptoms.
