I would assume it to be less because it is absorbing a bunch of the energy and then there were still be the layer of air between the panel and the actual roof, but I'm not an expert on these things. -----Mike HammettIntelligent Computing SolutionsMidwest Internet ExchangeThe Brothers WISP -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- Forrest Christian CEO , PacketFlux Technologies, Inc.
