Ron,
I have a 2.2 gpm 16 gallon northstar boomless sprayer. It sprays approximately a 10 foot wide spray pattern. I agree that the labels are like greek when it comes to application rates.
For me, I mix my glyphosate at 3 oz /gallon so for my 16 gallon I'm using around 48 oz. I don't know if I ever measured speed I'm going but would say maybe 2 mph. I'm not going fast and I'm not trying to saturate the vegetation, just get it wet. I find that my one 16 gallon tank will spray between 1/2 and 3/4 of an acre.
I find this works for me. Good luck!
