Hi Andy,

I used calibrated fits but i was not happy with the quality. I am no expert but they are very noisy and have many hot pixels which were not removed during calibration.

I also downloaded the un calibrated fits so i will also play around at stacking those using master darks and flats. if that fails then i will try stacking their darks and flats separately.

I have a friend who has been doing this for several years, he is also having a go at processing the data.

I did also get refund of points for some of the data as one would expect high quality data from those expensive scopes we are using.

cheers
