    Real nice! Is the "Royal Crown" embossed on that machine? If so, it's fairly rare I believe.

    What is everyone using for exterior security system cameras & DVR?

    What is everyone using for exterior security system cameras & DVR?

    Lukwerks VERY easy to install, no wires, just need an AC plug. It sends the video on the powerline back to your computer, where it USB's into your PC. Viewable from any internet connection in the world from the Wilife site. Around $275 gets you one camera, the software, the AC to USB unit. I...

    I want to monitor my garage via web camera

    I've used X-10 for 25 years, and have pretty good success with it. However, my experience with their cameras has been very unsuccessful.

    I want to monitor my garage via web camera

    Grinder Bill, just curious, are you paying your ISP for a static address, or is Linksys, or DYNDNS, hosting your cameras?

    I want to monitor my garage via web camera

    Anyone have an observatory?

    Yes, that's why I decided to spend the extra for the Goto. I know it would get old to keep nudging it, and I would end up getting the Goto anyways. I can't hold my binocs still enough. You must be using a tri-pod?

    Anyone have an observatory?

    I have plans on getting Orion's XX12g Dob. I want the goto one, even though it's more $. Funny thing is you can spend about as much on decent eyepiece's. I'm also going to get the tele vue 13mm Check out this view of the moon on a 10" using the wide angle Tele vue 13mm. It's like you're...
