yes, "plug into moniter", as i said it has a monitor type plug and an adaptor which changes it to a tv areal fitting, i can set it up no probs but my question was best way and what hardware would i use to record with??.

If it has a Tv ariel you should be able to plug it in to vcr's / dvd recorders or a pc with a tv capture card / dongle.
The later been my choice for longer record times and archiving ect.

I have a motorised Micromark PIR CCTV camera installed above the front dood. It has two way audio. I have installed to my PCs TV card and records every time the PIR is triggered.
Its good for security and you can see who is at the door before you open it. And if you dont like the look of some one, just use the two way audio to tell them to p*** off.
If you have a TV type connector, the u can use a vcr,dvd recorder or pc with tv card or u can get a scart asaptor and use the TV to view.
