Usually a 1/4 wave open stub, or a half wave shorted stub...
I used to use 1/4 wave stubs to attenuate strong local TV signals from a masthead amp that was primarily used for weaker signals. The frequency of the wanted vs interferring signal were a nice 2:1 relationship so I was kind of lucky. I used 75r coax and just chopped it to about .82VF and it actually worked first time. I'd suspect though that the problem is more likely to be fundamental overload. Of course it cant hurt to try. Both a 1/4 wave open and 1/2 wave short stub present a low Z to the tuned frequency, or if you like "shorts it out", If however the wanted pass freqency is an odd multiple (1/4 wave) or an even multiple (1/2 wave) then you end up attentuating that as well.
