fill my back-yard with PV..

Which reminds me, it's a new month, and I'll be needing another seasonal tweak on my panels..
Great, it's starting to get sunny here!

Keep up the good posts!
Xringer,
The azimuth is built into the lower part that meets the base pole, right now it's in the most upright position. You can build the mount to a smaller scale in fact I have some older 75 watt modules that I might do this with to pump water. In that case I might add tracking also but only in one direction. I kind of like adjusting the azimuth every month or so!
