Good info in this thread. Ground plane and polarization of antennas theory is very interesting and gets into the nittygritty of rf electrical engineering.
But it's not usually found in the advertisements for even quality cameras, and for most laymen it's really not a "need to know".
The main thing to look for in a wireless camera is interference elimination in the design and reliability, both of which are found in WIRED camera systems. More difficult to install, but if you count on seeing that car behind you changing lanes and possibly presenting a hazard, then the wired system is for you. It's not to say that wired systems are totally reliable, because there's always the connection at the tow vehicle that can become intermittent. But that connection is easily repaired.
I have a wired camera, and I have been tempted to get a wireless one, but I still come back to the reliability quotient of the wired camera.

Me thinks the comment was tongue in cheek.
EDIT. Actually, I have to put my TV in reverse to activate the rear view camera. It is a little rough on the tranny at highway speeds. There is an after market camera controller available that is a heck of a lot cheaper than a new tranny. Since I rarely back up at highway speeds, I haven't bothered to get one.

I bought and installed a Voyager WVOS511 Wireless backup camera. I wasn't happy about the price, but I am happy about the performance.
I agree, but mine does wag out while traveling with my 40 ft trailer and I really appreciate the explanations of Neal10a..... He obviously has a good grasp of RF.
