I have a 60' motorized tilt-over US Tower "flagpole" which has the remote control accessory. I never use it from inside the house, as I must position the SteppIR exactly in the right direction, or I can hit the roof of my house on the way down. So I take the remote unit outside and plug in in and lower the tower while eyeballing the beam. 
     Someone suggested getting an outdoor day/night security camera and mounting it on the eave of the roof. Also turning one of the outside lights on the back corner of the house toward the tower. Then I could lower the tower while watching on the CRT monitor. 
    Has anyone tried this? Suggestions?
