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
