Its in the public area of the forum, if it were one of my jobs and I come across it I doubt it would take long to work out who posted it

Thats me twenty years ago!!

There are two sides to every story, and we are only hearing your side. I used to be an engineer and have seen some down right dangerous stuff in the past, I put my hand in a cupboard once looking for a light switch that the customer told me was just to the right, only to put my hand on a live mains JB with no lid on it. This was on a takeover and the JB was feeding the spur for the panel. I have also seen cameras lashed in because a staff member is suspected of stealing. I take on board that it is not good especially if you work for the company, but you have to ask yourself why would they use service guys to install if the job was not a rush job? I have installation engineers and service engineers and the only times I use one to do the others job is exceptional circumstances. I suspect that your company has lots of problems though, because my team would come to me if they found that, not plaster it on a forum and knock approved companies.

We have had occasions where a customer has needed an urgent camera regardless of how its installed, because they were expecting trouble or a problem. So the job has been lashed in, but we have always returned and put the job right when time is less important than the job. I cant think of an occasion where we have done something as bad as the pic though, even OX wasnt that rough.

No certainly not, it makes my eyes go funny.

The bell box and dcom antenna come out at a proper height, so why would the same installer not bring the CCTV cables out at the same level? It doesnt make sense, plus I dont know any professional co that runs two separate cables to a camera most would use external grade Cat 5 and Baluns or shotgun. I would say the cctv is by someone that saw a picture once and now thinks theyre a installer.

Who said it was installed by an approved installer?

I am sure thats what I said? No need to apologise, I occasionally get things wrong too, us oldies have to stick together

I was replying to this^^^^^^

Woosh was the noise it made as it went straight over your heads

Well if your not bothered if whatever it is your towing falls off the back of your car potentiating killing the innocent victims driving behind you, there is a reason for approved installers you know. The way I see it if you want to save money save it on something less important like your burglar alarm or water supplier

There is nothing two way that would do it.... is there?

Why would you fit a Gtec RKP to cars?

Yes, we installed three receivers and a transmitter a couple of months ago, and Eaton gave our engineer support on them too

Scantronic TX and RX would work

There you go again handing out your free advice

Nor did I but your still giving it

I would agree with that to some degree, but this is a forum where people come for assistance and guidance, and if I was offer any guidance it would be to charge enough to make a worthwhile living and not just enough to cover the fuel cost

? Surely if you dont need the money you would work for a needy cause, like some sort of charity.

you can still get 6 wire not sure if they are blue or not

bonjour what was your old username I can merge them if you can prove the accounts yours

I bet they charged enough money to make it worth them getting out of bed in the morning though

Do you have insurance?
