Good start to a whole new obsession.
A couple of things to look at prior to your next imaging session. Collimate your scope prior to each planetary imaging session. With practice you will see whether the scope needs it or not. It has to be really good for good images.
Next take your time with focus, this is critical go forward and backward through focus, use a Hartman mask in you feelyou need to. In your last shot the moons are out of focus, which means your shot is out of focus.
As for the LPI, the save every images box is on the right hand side of the screen. Just check that. Then look at Kernel filter and go for medium edge enhancement. I found keeping the gain at 85 and offset at 49 gave reasonable results. Exposure at 0.377 sec. And yes set the BMP mode also, try not to use the JPG mode as this will greatly decrease your image quality.
Anyway, your well on your way to producing some nice shot.
