A choke balun would only help if the feed line is radiating. I doubt
that is happening. What more likely is happening is that the house
wiring is acting as a receiving antenna. This is so due to close
proximaty to the RF near fields of the antenna. The power lines then
could conduct sufficient energy into the TV where anything might
happen.
Also the TV sets RF front end maybe overloaded due to the TV set's
receiving antenna is to close to the CB antenna.
Either of these cases a choke balun would not be helpful.
