Thanks Barry, I'll have another look but I think the single subs have the same issue, so I'm not sure it's a stacking thing. Although, I am starting to wonder if something else is physically out of alignment because I always have issues on the same side of all my frames.... Something to investigate I guess.

Newbie question: did you have the mirror locked when you took those exposures? was this done using your laptop?
Thank you
Niv you are too kind.
I assume you mean my focuser , no my focuser was not locked. It might have moved but it is a pain to lock as doing so changes the focus anyway
I took the images with my laptop connected for control etc but it was processed on a desktop.

Goran.
