Great wide field though! I thought you'd have used your AP after the comparison test you did between them a few months back.
I didn’t use the AP as it had not arrived when I captured this data in late 2016 with my FSQ.

The FSQ is currently languishing in its case....sure, they are a remarkably well corrected uber wide field instrument and they work very well in that role (yes, duh, that’s hardly a revelation. )

But as you point out, the resoltion from a 4” refractor is not earth shattering.

Perhaps it’s the “vibe”.
