Darn it! I knew there'd be a catch...

Yes, it is a problem.

Next time use much lower resistances.

The input is coming from a 50ohm videop feed - 1k input to the
detector circuit would be high enough to prevent excessive
loading, otherwise you could buffer it with an emitter follower.

The same with the relay driver circuit and its feedback.
