Hi Adam,
I’ve been dithering for years and yes your probably right about exposure times but this is my first venture into Mono so step by step approach with exposure and gain
I’m getting some encouraging results using ASTAP to calibrate, align and stack this data set
A few folk are providing some ASTAP tips on various other forums and looks like I’ll be ditching DSS, at least for Mono imaging. I’ll probably still use DSS for OSC work as it’s performed well for years both DSLR days and the last 3 years using my 2600MC.
A few more tests with ASTAP and Startools over the coming week

Thanks
Martin

PS My flats are fine, however the t shirt has to go anyway , a bit antiquated. I’m buying some good quality 3mm opal acrylic differ to sit between the OTA and light panel , just to disperse the light more efficiently and have better illumination control.
