Re: CCTV mount

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok..lemme see if I even get the job. I supposed to call the guy today but I
got stuck in an attic fixing rodent damaged wires (yecko).

I'll budget for a couple hundred and if I get it I'll make drawings and call
ya.

He had offered to install poles, I guess h e has someone that does that...if
we have to go that route it'd save me time since all i'd have to do is
weathertight flex up to a mount....we'll see.

Thanks.

R.
