I doubt very much that the Moon would have any real impact on images of a bright object like Jupiter. There are a lot of different factors that contribute to image quality: focus, seeing, elevation of the object, focal length being used and of course your imaging capture and processing work-flow.
Most of the good planetary imagers stack hundreds or even thousands of individual frames to produce a final image. If you share some more details of your process then I'm sure someone on here can give you some tips which will help you improve.

Hi Pete, I think it is my prose sing Skills have let me down, I used registax and I thought I stacked 400 images but that is not certain as I had no end of trouble, newbie at work. I have watched tutorials on utube and read many web pages and all I got was more confused. I will try and try again till I get there. Cheers John
