Hi Alex & Steve,

Thanks for the compliments - much appreciated!

Alex - I can drop the temp a bit, but have found zero to be a reasonable compromise. I do dither when imaging - just not very much - 2 pixels every 10 frames. (Which is fine when I'm doing 30-second exposures, but not so much in cases like this.)

Steve - I didn't try leaving out the Flats/DarkFlats as my Flats showed a fair few dust bunnies hiding in there. I might give that a try later today, too, and maybe see if Siril's 'drizzle' function can be accessed from Sirilic. I definitely keep the Darks because of the amp-glow - it's a pretty obvious with the '183.

Also, I tried using gain of 0 when I first got the '183, but suffered some seriously bad colour-banding across the image. I found anything under a gain of about 50 does this. How did you manage to use a gain of zero and not get the colour issues?

Cheers,
V
