ok, I'll chime in here, seeing that staying up tonight to take images of Jupiter has been cancelled due to the clouds. You need to do a couple of things before you start imaging:
1. Seeing check - use skippy weather to get the seeing forecast. It does not matter that you live in a big city. I am 5.5km from the Melbourne CBD and here are some of the results this year:

If the stars are twinking like mad leave it for another night.
2. You need to cool down your mirror - does it have a fan? Leave it outside several hours before imaging, use anything you can to get the temperature mirror down. You have a lot glass in a 10". Even putting on a domestic air conditioner inside to cool the mirror works well. Get a weather thermometer and attach to the side of the mirror and try and get the mirror to ambient before imaging.
3. Collimation - must be perfect. Point the scope to Jove, get tracking, and then collimate before you image.
4. Make sure you get 70% plus on the histogram with your exposures. Your images look faint to me. Crank up the gain and try and get the highest FPS you can - this will freeze the seeing and you will get good frames.
5. Forget about Registax for stacking. Use Autostakkert2 with multi point aligning. Then throw it into Registax for wavelets. Then get a free copy of Astra Image and do some deconvolution. The some contrast and noise reduction in Photoshop or something similar.
6. IF you want to get more funky - assume you have a colour camera - break the avs into RGB using a software program, and then process seperatelty and recombine.
Have fun and keep us posted on progress.
Clear skies,
John K.
