A fair bit I reckon. When Hil is microwaving (a new verb for you there!) in the motorhome I can't use my bluetooth earhole device. I have to leave the van and walk up the road. When it is raining and I'm sitting all comfy in the front talking on the phone I have been known to shout "Oi! Turn that ****ing thing off!" to which my beloved will reply, "No ****ing tea for you then, you miserable old ****er!" Typical "caravan people".... *rolls eyes* :) |

Alarm cable is usually 6 core and not twisted pair, so would probably be worse than cat5? Yes I would have thought so. They use four core for this if they have any handy. -12V and video ground, +12V, video, spare or audio. The result looks OK, sort of, but when you change it for coax it tends to be an improvement! Bill I came across one of these basic B&W cameras with a long flex and a scart plug on the end and a PSU spliced in. The picture wasn't too bad but I concluded the audio buzz from the built-in mic was unacceptable "feature" -- Graham. %Profound_observation% |

"Eednud" wrote in message . .. I have a Virgin Media V+ box. It has a copy to VCR Function which outputs a recorded programme (Stored on the internal HDD) via a scart socket on the box, which should be connect to a VCR/DVDR. I would like to transfer this to an upstairs room. I already have a spare Cat 5e (4 twisted pairs) cable running between these rooms. It is not possible to run any more cables, as I installed these cables when building an extension. Is it possible to solder the pins I require from the scart lead to a Cat 5e cable to transfer this signal upstairs and then back to scart. i realise that SCART has 21 pins and I only have 8 wires available, but I just want a basic picture and would even settle for mono sound if required. Has anyone ever done this.... and what pins must be connected to give sound and vision? TIA Is this what you are looking for http://shop.satelliteonline.co.uk/mi...goods-64-c.asp |

I've just fitted several 75 metre runs of CAT5e for CCTV cameras, I used baluns which cost under a tenner per pair, they have a BNC connector, a 2.1mm plug/socket for power and a phono plug at each end. I can't vouch for the audio quality but the video is fine. -- Clint Sharp |
