It doesn't matter how much attenuation you use because the signal is getting into the TV after the attenuator. If you haven't grounded the coax, do that now with a grounding block.

Then try more attenuation.
Next try two UVSJs in series to remove anything below UHF; use common and UHF ports.
Or, if you want 12, try two HLSJs in series instead of an FM filter; use common and high ports.

Last resorts:
1. Custom filters to attenuate your strongest signals.
