I doubt the 3414 would overload. I've used it many times as close as 4 miles to DC with high gain antennas with no overload whatsoever.

I have used both the CM-3418 and the CM-3410 at less than 7 miles from Queen Anne Hill in Seattle with no hint of overload.
But is the antenna aimed towards those transmitters or somewhere else?
I'm seven miles away from three UHF TV transmitters and any amp will get overloaded when you are trying to receive stations 55 miles away in the same direction. Traps help, but there still are problems.

I use the older (US made) Winegard DA-815. I also tried the higher gain DA-825, but that didn't work. Too high a gain.
