    I have never had a 7. But today yields 6.11 Os.

    Unfortunately the configuration of each system being different ie., the location and orientation of roof and angulation

    I'm yet to see beyond 6.8 O's - Hopefully on a No cloud day I might hit the elusive 7

    Out of curiosity - What is the Highest any domestic system has gone to?
