You will find nothing but problems going after a cheap DVR. Geo is good but a bit pricey. IVIEW is a half way decent board and it's a little cheaper. But as I say. Don't go too cheap. You will regret it in the long run. We use these two boards so we can hit both ends of the price range. I'm new to this board and I'm not sure I can mention another board and where to obtain it. Keep in touch with me. Maybe I can help you out.

I was referring to PTZ domes. Sorry I didn't mention that. We have sent them back for service several times and they just can't take care of them.One only lasted I day. We had to replace all of them to satisfy the customer. The first problems were the focus and iris, which they said was a common cause at the time. I can be reached at john@vidicomcctv.com Thanks much for your instant answer.

I notice an old posting from Jason at GE. If you have any imput to the dome division, tell those in command they have lost more customers than they gained. We have had nothing but problems with the Kalatel Domes. Having sent them back several times to no avail. The thing that got me fed up, is several went out several days after they were installed. When I got them back, they were not the new domes I purchased, but refurbished as they were plainly maked by GE. The serial numbers were different. Now don't tell me it was our fault. I happen to be the oldest installer of CCTV in the world, that's right in the world along with my company and we know this business inside and out.

I hope I get my message on correctly. The intro is sort of confusing. I'm interested on any facts about the BDS boards and where to ourchase them.
