although there was still a faint line as per here:
"It's much better - I had to really stretch it with HDR toning to see any black line.
See the pic of Alpha Centauri."

If I was prepared to make super fine adjustments with the external potentiometer
that I installed to replace R27
then I'm sure I could get it perfect.
As per this pic:
