Hi Ash
I've been away so didn't see this thread until you pointed it out in the other thread.
The blue channel is almost always the worst - it is the most dependent on the seeing due to its shorter wavelength.
I've had many nights where the blue channel is horrible, but on the nights of good seeing it can contain quite a bit of nice detail and contrast.
You could try without the UV/IR filter to see if it makes any difference, or to see if you've got a dud filter.
But part of the problem of using a 1-shot colour camera is that you can't change the gain or any other settings for each colour channel. You have to adjust it to about right, and then each channel can get its own adjustment in post-processing.
I think it's just a matter of patience and continued practise. What you're doing now is practise. You need to wait for those nights of good seeing and that's when all this practise will bear fruit and you'll get an image you'll really be proud of.
