Hi Ray and crew. I've been playing with the yet-to-be-released Solar Pathfinder software, I think folks will find it handy for working with clients on siting and getting a solid estimate of system output. 

Set up the Pathfinder as usual, take a photo of the dome, import the photo into the software (Windows only at this point), mouse click around the obstacles, and generate a report that is very similar to PVWATTS, plus the original plot graphic.

The S.P. folks are planning on unveiling it at the Michigan energy fair, and will have it at MREF the next week.

>>My siting tool's compass is pretty bad, but I like the tool otherwise. For tricky situations, I go back to the solar data, take angle measurements, and work it out on paper.( I remember someone here mentioning software for this?)
