So I had the transmitter about fifteen feet from the remote and about 15 feet from the receiver. It worked, but only sometimes. Then I placed the little square receiver right on the window in front of the Camera sensor. Now it worked well enough that I ..." Read Full Review »

"Took a chance after reading the mixed ratings and verifying RS return policy (30 days). I replaced a 15+ yr. old Radio Shack/Archer Rabbit VCR Multiplying System (#15-1953) that uses 150 ft. of "mini-wire" to transfer audio, video, IR - not too efficient these days).
