SCHED provides warnings at individual scans for distances less than 10 degrees. The distance from the Sun to each source in this schedule is: Source Sun distance (deg) PG1211+143 154.9 J1213+1307 155.2 PG1426+015 121.0 J1430-0009 120.4 J1159+2914 151.5 J1430+1043 121.9 Barry Clark estimates from predictions by Ketan Desai of IPM scattering sizes that the Sun will cause amplitude reductions on the longest VLBA baselines at a solar distance of 60deg F^(-0.6) where F is in GHz.
