I had a very bad problem here with a WIRED system about 10 years ago. What I 
did to cure it was to put .01 mfd caps with a leg to ground at ends of the 
sensor wires where they fed into the alarm panel. BUT...also on the leads at 
the KEYPADS inside the garage and the one at the front door of the house. 
Problem was solved here after that. Good luck.  - Mike

Tim,

Can't he break-up the wires using various techniques?

Or add some filters.

Or both?

I don't like wireless for indoor cameras, for obvious
reasons, but otherwise it sure is easier to install wireless.
