Solar Observers - when do you observe
I'm buying a second-hand H-alpha scope (yeah), a 60mm Lunt. As it happens I'm also organising a micro-observatory for my DSLR and it strikes me that this will be the perfect mount for the solar scope. However my preferred location for the mount doesn't have a great eastern horizon. I heard mention that people like to get their images before the heat of the day. But of course the Sun need to be up high enough to not be looking through too much air. So what in peoples experience is the lowest elevation at which you start observing?
thanks,
David
