NPH, I think you'll enjoy it more when a few sunspots come back.
Like Ron & yourself, a dedicated Ha or CaK solar telescope is a bit out of my range! I use the Baader film with a 4.5" reflector, and on a good day you can see plage and faint granulation as well as sunspots. Occasionally I've wondered if a simple Moon polarising filter fitted in the eyepiece would reduce glare a bit and show the granulation better (used WITH the Baader filter of course!!!). I've got one, just laziness never trying it out I suppose! Promise I will next time!
Cheers -
