RH,

What does this mean: "14.95 monthly plus GST ($16)" ?
Is GST a tax?

Sir, I won't comment on the idea of "self monitoring" other than to refer
you to a page that might or might not provide some useful thoughts on the
matter. If you require a system that is non monitored, you likely will
have to search out a local company that does this, or do it yourself.

Hi everyone,

Me and my wife are wanting to put an alarm system in our home, but we
live in a fairly good neighborhood, and though none of my neighbors
(some living there for 30+ years) know of any problems in the
neighborhood or surrounding streets, we'd feel more comfortable with
some sort of alarm system.

I know Brinks and ADT have remote monitoring, but I'd like something I
can monitor myself without monthly fee's. Ideally I'd love to have
something with window and door scensors plus glass break alarms, but
the perks I'd love to get are something that'll connect to my computer
and either send a page to me or better yet just call 911 with an
automatic message asking for help. All Brinks and ADT do is this,
isn't it??? Why pay them if a system can be setup to do this for me.

Thanks for any suggestions, but being a rookie in this field I'm not
sure what's available out there. I guess for me simply having an alarm
that sets off an alarm when the circuit around the doors and windows
breaks would work, but the perks of notification would be nice

Thanks for any ideas or thoughts.

Sam Alex
