Hi Power CATV amplifiers

Back in the 1970's I came across a Blonder-Tounge catv anplifier for an apartment building, I don't remember the gain but 90 keeps popping up in my brain, I don't think they made them that powerful. Any way I hooked it up to the output of a modulator I had hooked up to my Cartrivision color VTR I bought from Olson Electronics and using a regular receiving antenna mounted on a 20 foot pole and aimed at my friends house about a block away he received a perfect picture, I would record Star Trek and then show them at night and a friend would bring over his U-matic machine (no beta of vhs yet) and I would dub movies like vanishing point and others. Everything was fine until I played a porno, I did not know that Dale had told a bunch of friends who were also receiving the signal, up to about 3 blocks away. Someone's parents complained and that was the end of that. But it was fun!
