Morning people certainly have the advantage, I just happened to be a slow starter, but stay at it till it's done, even if it's 3am. I've never been inclined to call anyone before 9am, or after 9pm, unless it's been pre-arranged.
My mornings are generally spent sorting, figuring, and mapping things out, and it's sort of a distraction having the phone ringing. Maybe my getting older, sort of got a one track mind, but really prefer any distractions to be in the mid to late afternoon, and that's usually when I make what phone calls I have to make, generally, and hopefully, a day ahead
When my father was alive time was never a consideration, a 3:00 am was call was answered the same had it been 3:00 pm.
I myself find it best to deal with letters, email and telephone communications first thing in the morning while people are still sucking back that first cup of coffee, there used to be a time when you could almost catch someone home but in todays world it's not uncommon for both mother and father to be out working to support the family.
Whenever I'm calling about scrap it's always before the kids are off to school while an adult is still available to take the call. I find that most people prefer a morning call as to an evening when they consider this their down time.
