Just keep in mids lads that the PST is a dedicated h-alpha scope, the corona is not visible through such a scope at anytime, only the disk and prominences/flares.
A removable while light filter is the way to go, so you can take it off during totality. I have my thousand oaks filter ready to go on the 4" refractor, I cant wait !!!
