How far away from the barns - is your house?

How did you plan to do the "Video"? Why was it prohibitive? Could you get
away with placing "a" camera - high in a corner overlooking all? IF so,
though I'm not sure of quality, there are some systems out there for less
than $100. And, they're wireless to boot.

What makes/models are the Baby Monitors? That might help those of us
familiar to give more accurate information on whether you can and/or how to
proceed.

Come on. If this was a repair issue, or he asked where the question belongs,
it really has nothing to do with the model. UNless the thing is multichannel
to begin with (and then why would he ask about changing the frequency),
there's going to be one obvious component that when changed will change
the frequency of the monitor. Of course, one also has to change the same
component in the receiver, though its specs will not be identical to
the one in the transmitter. It likely will entail having that component
custom made, unless the manufacturer can be tracked down and they actually
supply the units on different frequencies and will offer up the needed
two components to make that change.

Changing Frequency of baby monitor.

I operate a sanctuary for abused horses. There are 2 barns on my
property. One is the "hospital" for horses that are seriously ill.
The other is for those who are relatively healthy but need to be
indoors. There are times when I need to monitor the barn or one
particular horse. When weather is bad, I cant keep going to the barn
every hour or so, and I cant "camp" in the barn. While a video system
seemed like the solution, I found the cost prohibitive. Instead I
picked up two used Baby Monitors and placed the transmitters in each
barn, and tuned in my police monitor to receive them.

This works fairly well, and I can listen to the horses. Their sounds
do tell me what is going on most of the time. However there's one
problem. Both transmitters are on the same frequency. This means
that I have to go to the barn I want to listen to, and plug in the
transmitter, and then unplug the other one. Thi rather defeats the
purpose. Each needs to be on a different frequency.

I have some electronics background as a hobbiest, but I am not all
that familiar with these baby monitors.

Is there a way to change the frequency on one transmitter?
