Re: Dallas homeowner in shootout with attempted armed robbers

some basic question about security surveillance systems

What kind of wiring requirements?
- Power supply for camera?
- Cable from camera to recorder?

What kind of recorder?
- A PC with a very large hard drive?
- Something else?

Where do you put the recorder?
- In the home office
- Under the TV with the other TV boxes
- In the secure 'closet'

Four cameras would let me record:
- 5'x5' front porch, front door, mail box
- 2 car garage
- Drive way
- Back gate / outside AC compressor

Do basic systems allow you to add more cameras later?

Do they allow you to upgrade from "$100" beginner cameras to the latest 'Whiz bang' camera later?

Re: Dallas homeowner in shootout with attempted armed robbers

Did you design and install the security surveillance system yourself or did you hire 'The Guy'?
