Is there such a thing as a surge suppressor for cable TV, similar to those 
available for both household AC and telephone lines? Are they worthwhile?
Are there other/better ways to protect expensive TVs and VCRs from voltage
spikes which might come along the cable line? Finally, who sells these sorts
of things?

Thanks.
