Can anyone tell me where i can get a transparent MCS horizon chart that will fit in a sunpath indicator?

What a load of utter nonsense. My MCS appointment letter, We endeavour to provide a minimum of four weeks notice and hope the date we provide is acceptable to you. Unfortunately, cancellation of a booked appointment providing less than 14 days notice will attract a cancellation charge of...
The use of microinverters seems to be under threat being that the MCS have written a paper asking for DC isolators on these systems.
Will post more information over the weekend when I get hard copy.
I thought I might have a look at this system a couple weeks ago to make the transition to the new DTI guide etc a bit easier. I've taken advice from the Sun Lounge - thanks everyone, but have since had a couple of calls from Easy MCS.
Basically they got me to try their online system for a week...

Just wondered how it is possible to register and installation with a variety of panels? For example, with solar edge / micro inverters you can have multiple panels. On my install I have Hyundai and Suntech on different strings but MCS only asks for a single panel type. So how would you do this?
