Actually, Bill, the hardware for a tractor hiney-cam should be relatively simple. Check out the
X-Cams for low cost cameras. I've been using one of their camera/transmitter/receiver packages for a couple of years now. I have a tiny camera peeking out through the curtains in a front room and broadcasting the picture to a TV monitor in my back-bedroom office. It allows me to monitor the front door and street to see if I really need to go answer the door. The best part is being able to see the UPS truck coming with my latest gadget.

The flat-screen video display will be more of a challenge, but glancing at eBay I saw quite a selection for around $100. The trick will be to find a source for one with a built-in TV modulator. I found one place that offered a color 4" x 6" flat panel screen that had everything I wanted at a great price. Of course, they were sold out. [img]/w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif[/img]
I'll only be pursuing this in my spare time, which at the moment is non-existent. [img]/w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif[/img]
