    New here from Pennsylvania

    Hi all. Just wanted to introduce myself. I have a Lorex system with six LNB8963, two E892AB cameras and N882A6 NVR. It was hit by lightning. The NVR and two of the cameras got fried. This time I want to buy a GW Security NVR to work with Lorex cameras. I will need some advice there.
