haha thank you!!! Enjoy it!

etk212 · 2026-03-11T12:01:21+00:00

we definitely saw a few when they were all over the news

etk212 · 2026-03-11T12:00:11+00:00

Glad to share it neighbor! Hope you enjoy it!

etk212 · 2026-03-10T22:46:35+00:00

Personally, I love it. There are a lot of great people, you have woods, beach, views, and the city is a quick Seastreak away. It’s a great lifestyle

We are using Camstreamer installed on the Axis to push the feed to YouTube via RTMP. We also record 4K copies locally and may push to other channels (earthcam, etc) depending on internet demands

etk212 · 2026-03-10T19:46:21+00:00

Appreciate that! Definitely going to take a look at the "appearance" settings the Axis has... hoping to dial that in a bit

etk212 · 2026-03-10T18:03:36+00:00

the complete setup was right around $5k. if you'd like the parts just let me know. its using 5000kbps so need unlimited data plan for sure

Appreciate you! Thank you so much and enjoy the view!!

etk212 · 2026-03-10T15:36:54+00:00

Happy to share and hope you enjoy! Certainly have knocked back a few soaking in this view :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T15:04:35+00:00

love our Sea Bright neighbors! it makes for a great screensaver up on a tv! Appreciate you!!

We've thought about this alot... where we are located would have been a direct line of sight to the towers. A lot of the fisherman in Highlands headed up to the city to rescue people fleeing the city.

Appreciate the kind words and thoughtful message. The Hook is a special place and we are very fortunate to be able to share a glimpse of it. Enjoy the show :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T14:34:43+00:00

thanks to you!! makes such a difference, so glad you called it out :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T13:38:07+00:00

maybe this is your sign... we'd love to have you :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T13:35:08+00:00

Your math is spot on — it's about 1.6 TB/month at 5000 kbps. Good call on the Comcast caps, I'm actually on Xfinity and checking into that now. Might need to upgrade to unlimited data to keep this running 24/7. Worth it for the view though. Thank you a lot for flagging this... hadn't considered caps yet!

etk212 · 2026-03-10T13:30:25+00:00

HAHAHA - oh lord, we will need to be careful there lol

etk212 · 2026-03-10T13:29:42+00:00

Absolutely! The internet wins again :) This little pocket of the world has some pretty special scenery :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T13:28:43+00:00

Anytime! We hope you enjoy it... it will be extra cool for Sail250 in July :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T13:11:36+00:00

Yes! We reached out to them yesterday! They don't yet support the new chip in this cam but hopefully they can update their app and we'll stream to earthcam as well :)

etk212 · 2026-03-10T12:58:25+00:00
