If you plan on trying any of these you will need a Lunar Limb profile for your longitude to help in selecting where your site should be. Please E-mail Me for one and perhaps an updated path if your elevation will be more than 200 meters or so different from the 250 meters that these predictions use.
If you would like profiles or anything else, please don't hesitate to ask!
