I bought a set at K Mart around Christmas time for $150. It included a
small 5 in. black nd white tv with wall p.s.(also operable on internal D
cells. The camera had a ring of IR diodes around the lens to illuminate
the scene for night pictures which could be used or not. It also
operated on a wall supply or internal D cells. The camera had a small
rotatable loop antenna on top about 3 in. square. It transmitted both
sound and video on ch. 3 or 4 to the receiver. I think it was made for
watching a baby or store aisles, etc. I believe it was rated for 300 ft
max but not positive on that. It was very impressive and worked very
well in dim light or darkness with the IR diode ring. The camera was in
a nice small plastic case. My daughter uses it out in a barn to observe
her miniature horses when they are about to deliver a baby. 73, Dan,
