Any remaining problem is wierd - check it with Canon and/or more your viewing site in case you have background noise or radiation!
else its a crappy adapter (transformer or cable) - return it for a swap.

Well g__day, I did try a long shot on battery, however I was also uploading the image 'direct' as a tricolour fits. What this really means is the camera raw is auto colour converted and saved as an RGB fits file.
I have tried a new set and though the lines are still there, they are not as obvious. The attached image is again a 300sec x 6 but this time it was uploaded as a raw CR2, calibrated and colour converted then combined using a median stack. Again the image is overstretched and I suppose normal processing will not suffer from the lines.
I have run out of time with it I think and am about to pull the EQ6 out of service for a while and remount the LX200 Classic and expect to use a monochrome imager. I suspect the problem is a slow PC. I will try the camera inside the house as you suggest, or at least I will try it without the computer and see if I still get lines. If so I'll talk to canon.
cheers,
Doug
