Ahh, so you are piping the blonder tongue RF directly into the tuner through coax and a balun....That would cause overload.

I prefer to use my Blonder Tongue modulators as transmitters. With a dipole tuned to the mid band of the channel the 40dBmV ones are capable of ~200' range on most vacant channels, and the 60dBmV ones can do a block radius.

As a fellow CTC-4 Seville owner I'd like to ask you for detailed measurements of the stand/legs portion of your set's cabinet....Mine is missing the stand/legs.

BTW/FYI: dB is a measure of relative signal strength, and without the reference point is meaningless to anything but gain/attenuation. DBmV is a unit of power and is not relative.
