Thanks to your inquiry Marcus Courtesy of Allan (alpal) and using MaximDL processing software to analyse the FWHM of multiple stars across the raw Fits Luminance frames, used in this image, confirms an average FWHM of 1.7" with some figures as low as 1.644" which is pretty good and I have seen similarly sharp sub frames on all four imaging sessions done at Eagleview so far...so, fingers crossed, this proves common place up there!
