just hooked up with VaSheriff and picked up a cam and have been playing around with it in the house...I'm impressed...I was going to just use it as a monitor for the little one...but now I think I'm going to try the camera on the back of my travel trailer and see how that works...

This should prove interesting. I wonder if it will transmit a clear picture that far?

With a 24 foot trailer you will be transmitting 3 times further than normal use.

I'm expecting I'm doing to have to do a little math and make the antenna a little higher gain, and also may try playing with the length of the cable between the camera and the transmitter box, basically try to get that at the very front edge of the camper....hey, for this price, I can play a little bit where I wouldn't have for $100

thanks again Steve

If you think you really want one, I will buy it now while they still have some left and hold it for you until next month. The price on these things is one of those "once in a lifetime" deals. Even if the sky falls next month and you don't take it, I am sure somebody will take it for $35 and shipping.

Let me know quick.... I am making a run to Sams Club again in the morning.

Hey Sheriff,

I'm still waiting for the local store to call me with the kit. I hope I didn't create a monster for you...

If the offer still stands, I would like one. Just let me know how to get you the funds, zip code is 99506. Hubby comes home for a week on Saturday before shipping out to Afghanistan. One more thing to add to his honey-do list Thanks, Jill <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

bcrewcaptain, could you pick one up for me? I cannot find it anywhere in our area (NW Indiana-Chicagoland) for under $79. I can paypal you what you need (Probably $40 total?) as soon as you want it. If not, I do understand. No worries.....
