VillageDreamer, if you can get a cable to the camera and DVR location, Sam Club has a Samsung unit (2 or 4 cameras) that works very well. You have the option to connect the DVR to the internet, which then allows emails, viewing, etc. These units are very reasonably priced and much more reliable then units at Harbor freight. If you do some searching you will see to stay away from SWAN, and several other brands sold at low end stores. I have around 3 years of experience with the Samsung unit, and very good product. As I stated before, I do not have any experience with the wireless units, but if you do not have a weatherproof outlet near where you are placing the camera, you may need to run a cable anyway.
I have other ideas, send me a PM with your phone number and we can discuss offline.
