I already have a ChannelPlus 5545 modulator feeding VCRs and DVDs to the
ChannelPlus distro amp "B" port.  I am trying to get all 4 CCTV cameras to
display via the distro amp on a single channel, and I am trying to do it as
simply (and inexpensively) as possible.

Speco has a quad splitter in the $130 range and a single-channel modulator
in the $80 range that seem OK.  Comment?
