Hi Bill

I’ve encountered a similar phenomenon with my cooled SBIG ST7E when taking short duration exposures (less than 30 secs) and noise begins to dominate the frame. When I stack such frames, it looks just like your example.

On longer exposures, (over 60 secs) where signal dominates, these artefacts are not there.

Cheers

Dennis
