BLONDER TONGUE ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT TO BUILD ELECTRONIC ON BOARD RECORDERS

OLD BRIDGE,  NEW JERSEY,  December 6, 2007 - Blonder Tongue  Laboratories,  Inc.
(AMEX:  BDR) today announced an agreement with Buffalo City Center Leasing,  LLC
to provide  manufacturing,  research  and  development  and  product  support to
Buffalo City for an  electronic  on board  recorder  (EOBR) that Buffalo City is
producing for Turnpike  Global  Technologies,  LLC. It is anticipated  that this
three year  agreement will provide up to $4 million in product sales for Blonder
Tongue.

"After  researching  the market our decision to have Blonder Tongue  manufacture
our  RouteTracker(TM)product  was  a  strategic  one.  Blonder  Tongue  provides
Turnpike  the  capacity  to meet  market  demands  for our  solution  as well as
industry leading engineering to assist in technological advancements," commented
Brendan Staub, President & CEO of Turnpike.

"Today's  trucking  arena  presents  numerous  challenges  to  the  carrier  for
maintaining a safe and efficient operation. Newly proposed regulatory compliance
factors,  increasing  fuel prices as well as an increase in safety and  security
measures  are all factors that the carrier  must take into  consideration  while
trying to maintain a proficient  operation.  Turnpike  Global  Technologies  has
developed a low cost EOBR solution  (called  RouteTracker(TM))  that can benefit
carriers  in  numerous  ways while  keeping  drivers  compliant  to the Hours of
Service Rule which in turn will make highways across North America a safer place
to travel" added Staub.

RouteTracker(TM)is  an EOBR that combines GPS and Engine Diagnostic  information
for small,  medium, and large vehicle fleets. The device is easily installed and
provides  customers  with  options  for  Electronic  Hours of Service  (HOS) and
Completely Automated IFTA Fuel Tax Reporting.  RouteTracker includes flexibility
to connect with multiple handheld devices such as Bluetooth cellular phones, and
Windows Mobile devices.  The HOS application is fully compliant with the Federal
Motor Carrier Safety  Administration's  Regulation 395.15. All data is available
24 hours a day, 7 days a week via a secure  website that can be accessed via the
Internet. (For more information please visit www.turnpikeglobal.com

"We're  excited to enter into this new arena and support the efforts of Turnpike
Global. There is strong synergy between the parties with Turnpike's  technology,
product and market  knowledge,  Blonder  Tongue's  expertise in radio  frequency
electronic  equipment design and  manufacturing  and Buffalo City's  financing,"
said James A. Luksch, CEO of Blonder Tongue.

"Jim  Williams,   a  director  of  Blonder  Tongue,   brought  this  interesting
opportunity to the Company," added Mr. Luksch. "Jim is the managing member and a
vice president of Buffalo City and also owns a material indirect equity stake in
the business.  Due to AMEX rules,  Jim no longer  qualifies as an  "independent"
director,  but will remain a director.  Blonder  Tongue has notified AMEX of its
non-compliance,  and will  coordinate  with AMEX to regain  it.  The  Company is
searching for candidates to fill the  independent  director  position as well as
considering other changes to the Board's  composition to regain AMEX compliance.
We believe that the result will be an even stronger Board of Directors to assist
us in achieving our future goals."
