I managed to get a relatively cheap second-hand Thousand Oaks off-axis small aperture filter for my 8", many thanks to an IISer and the IceTrade classifieds! It works quite well. Only tried it once and guess what, not a single sunspot to be seen - a pristine surface! I'm looking forward to some sunny days at Snake Valley to try some more.
