Welcome to the first episode of FatGuyFixerUpper!

In this episode, I'm testing whether I can run a security camera system over 800 feet across my rural property. This is the first step in many in securing the homestead, and I wanted to find out if this long-distance setup will actually work — without breaking the bank.

🔍 What I test in this video:

Can a standard security camera transmit video 800 feet?

What kind of cable and equipment do I use?

Does the signal hold up across long distances?

Whether you're setting up off-grid security, prepping a homestead, or just love DIY tech, you're in the right place.
