Hi Oaky,
Im a landscape gardener in Adelaide. Ive used many different pop up sprayers over the years, but the Hunter MP Rotator seems to be the best. The heads are expensive $16 each, but they are vastly superior to fan sprays. They use less water and it is delivered in a jet which works extremely well even in windy conditions, no misting. You can also get more a a single line. Automation is definately the way to go. Hope this helps. Llew
