Camos monitor antenna compatibility and channel memory after power cycle

18 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.

What the thread found

  • The Camos monitor has an external antenna input using a mini-pin connector that can be adapted to accept standard F-connector antennas like a Shark Fin antenna
  • The Camos monitor retains its tuned channel setting when powered off and back on
  • The Camos can be modified with additional BNC inputs and outputs to function as both a receiver and a program return monitor for live productions
  • Custom power and video input cables can be created for the Camos to allow powering from external sources and receiving program return feeds

Depends on

  • The Shark Fin antenna configuration with the mini-pin adapter has not been tested by the respondent
  • The Camos is relatively large for use as a return monitor in some production setups
  • Modifications to add BNC connectors require customization work
