Are all your coax/antenna connectors and grounds at the station tight?

This has happened more than once.  I get on a 80 meter net and knock my wife's program 
off, I'm running about 600 watts.  I then try 50 watts and still kick the program 
off.  The next day all I do is unplug the TV for a half minute and plug it back in and I 
can run 800 watts.
Over the years I have added lots of toroids on many leads at the TV.  The power 
to the entertainment center is thru one of Jim's brute force filters. I guess I can 
try more toroids on the two HDMI cables going into the TV.
With the problem being intermittent, it looks like I can only throw toroids at it 
and hope one will work.  Any Ideas?
It seems to be happening more often, but the TV can work with no problems for 
months or a day.
