Last night there were no clouds, but I could only see eleven stars!!! I'm not sure that narrow band can cut through this - but I will swap cameras and try it as a last resort.
cheers

Transparency will make LP worse but if you had the same conditions under dark skies you'd have bloated stars and loss of details as well. Can't do much about humidity in the air, but it looks like we're heading for a dry hot summer so I wouldn't worry too much.
