              BLONDER TONGUE REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2004 RESULTS


OLD BRIDGE, NEW JERSEY,  November 22, 2004 - Blonder Tongue  Laboratories,  Inc.
(AMEX:  "BDR") today  reported net sales of  $11,215,000  for the third  quarter
2004, a 22 % increase over net sales of $9,195,000 reported in the third quarter
2003.

Earnings for the third quarter 2004 were $406,000, or $0.05 per share, a marked
improvement over last year's net loss of $65,000, or ($0.01) per share, for the
comparable period.

Commenting on the third quarter 2004 results, James A. Luksch, Chief Executive
Officer, said, "Third quarter results show a significant improvement over the
third quarter for 2003 and our expectations are for continued long-term growth
in revenues and profits.  40% of the  quarter to quarter top line growth was
achieved with increased sales from the Company's data and telephony product
lines.  These products combined with our core analog and digital television
products, as well as the QT series of QAM Transcoders,  including the QTM-HD
transcoder module for high definition programming, complete the Blonder Tongue
Triple  Play  needed by our customers to compete in today's marketplace.  The
Company's introduction  of its TV Channel Blocker, which allows consumers to
restrict access to undesirable  programming, should begin to contribute to
further increase in sales in 2005 and continue in the years  ahead.  The market
potential for increased sales of these products is much greater than that which
has been realized to date."
