Although I'd like to find a new home for the old camera it's tough finding a good location. The old camera needs a dedicated computer (new cameras don't need a computer), a dedicated phone line and hopefully a networked high-speed internet connection. Also, all of this has to be available
year round. The new location would have to allow me to mount a camera on their roof and run wires, install a dedicated phone line ($50/month), provide power, provide space for the dedicated computer, and be in a great location.
So you can see, it's not that easy. It was a major accomplishment getting the WeirsCAM camera upgraded and there is still work to be done. I'm now looking into a way to provide streaming video from the new camera and possibly upgrading the Anchor Marine CAM to a similar setup. Installing yet another WebCAM on the lake is not on my to-do list right now but if a perfect location became available I would have to consider it.
