Hmm. This is interesting, but I take it all your TV's are hardwired to
the DA with coax?

Wiring is not an option in my case, but your use of an RF modulator is
intriging. Can you get video senders that send RF signals do you know?
With this I could have each camera with its own RF mod putting it on a
different frequency. This way I could in theory transmit as many
cameras as I wanted on the channel. The 4 channel limit has been
bugging me a bit :-/
