A great image Greg. The FSQ-ED w/focal reducer certainly captures a large swath of the sky. I'd imagine it would restrict your imaging capabilities with the 16803 considering its smaller image circle? Natively with the FSQ being 88mm image circle, it wouldn't be an issue. Are you using square filters yet?
I feel to do this area well needs a four frame mosaic at F/5. Jim Misti and Steve Mazlin did the region with the FSQ @ F/5 as shown
here. The further you extend the FOV, the lower the resolution sampling... in which lies the problem. Certain targets in this FOV really need to be acquired at a longer focal length to bring out the details... perhaps similar to Rob Gendler's Hybrid imaging techniques. A nice repost indeed. Well done.
