This week my 16 yr old Panasonic monitor has gone south. I can try to get it refurbed (not likely due to age) or bite the bullet and buy a new system.
There are 2 types - wired and wireless. I don't relish the idea of stringing new camera cable from the front to the back of my 34 ft class A because the current stuff is buried in the walls. On the other hand wireless just requires a 12v power source to the camera.
The wireless units transmit at 2.4 or 2.8 mhz and supposedly are subject to interference so thats a minus.
Heres where it gets interesting. I tow a VW using Roadmaster equipment for the towbar and the Evenbrake system for supplemental braking. The Evenbrake has a wireless transmitter that sends status data to a console on the MH's dashboard. On the last two trips there has been no problems with transmissions such as interference.
Roadmaster does not publish any frequency data for this rig so I am wondering if any one knows if these use a 2.4 or 2.8 mhz transmission.
My concern is if I do the wireless backup system will there be a conflict between the two different wireless transmitters. Camera and the ICX transmitter on the toad.
Does anyone have any ideas about this possible problem.
I'm sure glad you asked that question. I also have the EvenBrake system and am considering getting a wireless backup camera also. Interference is something I hadn't thought of; glad you did.
