OK, here's a little more.
Mast is about 40' tall comprised of three cores of 1-1/8" fence top rail lashed together for a total diameter of a little over 3" (Think honeycomb if looking at it from the end). Guyed and grounded.
TV and Cell phone repeater antennas at the top along with the camera. 2 RG-6, rotator, camera power (4 conductor, 22AWG) and Cat5 LAN cable for camera (backup for wireless) already in place. COAXs are connected through grounding adapters. LAN cable will be tied through a lightning arrestor and grounded.
Options for camera power:
A > 10 VAC (up to 8 amp) in garage at base > 22 AWG cable up mast (maybe doubling conductors) > bridge & regulator mounted inside dome > camera.
B > 110VAC line power up mast inside PVC conduit separated from coax by at least 4" > weatherproof box housing socket w/ wall wart plugged in > camera.
I have everything to do both, but for some reason, I'm just not wild about 110 even though it would be into a GFCI at the base. I'm not sure why since I have other outside lighting and outlets. Nothing else is that high though.
I know the 7805 will put out some heat, even with a heat sink, but I don't know if it will be enough to limit/reduce frost on the lexan dome. Using the 110 option, there will be no heat source at all to reduce frost, unless somebody has another idea.
The camera shouldn't draw more than an amp even though the wall wart is 2 amp. The 1 amp limit for the 7805 should be enough, I hope.
I just can't make up my mind.
