when i installed my BC-30.. I was using a Garmin 2597... 5 inch screen..
just before departing first of November. I got a Garmin 770LMTHD.. a 7 inch screen..
the backup camera is much less grainy . not as good as a small television.. but better
and with the extension.. less grain and faster refresh. as transmitter is at the front of trailer. under propane tank cover, but near the top of it. so it can see GPS over tailgate.( radio wise )
I think Garmin is overly generous on the 50-80 foot range.... more like 30 feet.
F 250 with 8 foot bed. Garmin on dashboard... trailer is 33 feet and fiberglass body.. had signal problems till extension was installed.
best of luck .. with spring... In South Texas till April.
I seen on the news.. Holly, Mi.. I 75 closed because of 40 car crash.
STAY SAFE.
