Just try different increasing values and see what happens. This is an experiment; we don't know how it will turn out. I can't afford the plane fare to come out there, so we are counting on you to do the experiments.

There should be no harm in adding more attenuation to the point of dropout. The screen will say no signal, which is what it would say if you removed the antenna coax.

So how many 10dB and 20dB in line attenuators do I need to pick up? I'll add my last 3dB attenuator to the C2V while I wait.
You should have enough attenuators to equal the NM of your strongest signal ~ 65 dB. That would be two 10 dB, two 20 dB, and the three 3 dB that you already have.

I have to leave. I need to eat because my blood sugar is low, which makes me cranky as a two-year-old who needs a nap.
