I opened the other modulator and realized that one of the 10mf 50volt caps I took out during the week, I forgot to replace, so I was actually operating the modulator without a cap that is needed.. I replaced it, no change in performance, and I also changed out the rest of the diodes and the 3 transistors, and it's still very weak.. I'll switch the mods and use the same channel and antenna and the TVs will come in crystal clear with the new one, and an unwatchable pic with the one that has problems..
You might just have a dead one. You gotta remember these modulators are extremely high hour devices. Some might be dead.

I got mine from some seller down in Texas. It works good. I'm pretty happy with it. All my video devices are plugged in to it. I love wireless video
