I've been on a similar wavelength to you the last week and pulled in a few days of narrowband data on the prawn (albeit a much smaller fov ) - and yes the conditions have been very challenging of late. Still fussing with the data but hopefully will finish things off and post soon...
Thanks Dave
Lovely comments
You should have seen the initial Auto stretch , quite noisy which didn’t surprise me. I could see a brighter glow in the northern sky more than usual , you guessed it , “Vivid”
I decided to use another stretch option in Startools called Film Dev which is based on the old digital develop algorithm. It seems to work a bit better with noisy data.
SV Decon also worked quite well considering I throttled up the iterations to 15 ( default is 10 ) took quite a bit of blur away without adding too much noise mottle. It’s a great algorithm, more natural than AI based Decon
The damn dew was ridiculous over those nights. I’m glad I tried the old fan , it really worked which surprised me and didn’t upset guiding at all as it’s a constant movement of air not gusts.
Thanks again
Martin
