OK - thank you for the input. Agreed, I didn't research *all* of the specs
you mentioned, in detail, but I was in a hurry to get something rigged up
quickly, with no time to do lenthy research. I'm also on a budget, so I
couldn't buy on the "you get what you pay for" premise. It's possible that
I will end up buying an entirely different setup, but for now, I'll have a
go at optimising what I've got - for example by following your suggestions.
The daytime performance is OK (or will be, if I can get all 4 cameras to
register correctly by the receiver). I'm mainly puzzled as to why nighttime
wireless performance is so terrible. Perhaps if I instal extra IR lights it
would improve things...
