The simple way to avoid this confusion is to omit posting the altitudes so
that people know that they have to calculate them mathematically. I do not
take altitudes for a vast majority of Lunars that I shoot because of their
purpose and the fact that I often shoot them in the middle of the night. I
am very specific when they are include to say that they are Hs and give the data
people need to determine Ho from the Hs. (height of eye, T/P, IE etc).
