Solmetric or Pathfinder? [RE-wrenches]

[Bob-O Schultze, Electron Connection]

Hiya Dave,
I'm not too familiar with the Solmetric. I had an opportunity to  
check it out recently but it didn't happen. The reason is one HUGE  
flaw in the Solmetric machine. The battery was dead. The battery is  
built in-can't be changed- has to be charged IN the machine. Wanna go  
on a site survey with that? I don't think so.
The Pathfinder program is pretty cool, but PC only. If you use a Mac,  
yer out. It also needs a few improvements like the ability to overlay  
several pictures, ie, from the E and W side of the proposed array.
Best, Bob-O
