Thank your guys for all your answers. As scott mentioned, I want to
the possible max power (dBm) a receiver can get no matter it works or
not. I know it depends on a lot of things, like receiver antenna
efficiency. But could you give me a empirical number assuming that
reciever's antenna is most efficience in the thoery.
Thanks

That question is a non-starter. A poorly-designed reciever will probably freeze up
within a mile of a 50kW antenna, while a superb one could likely take several
volts-per-Meter and not even squeal, even when within the tuning house or at the base
of the tower..
I think his question is how many dBm would be received at the front end
when sitting at the base of the tower. Not how many dBm can be received
and still use the radio.
