You're absolutely right Jase. This wasn't really a serious attempt as I had already imaged more fully with the BRC and put in some more serious time.
This was more a fill-in to use up the last hour and a half at the end of the night. S11 is indeed low in exposure time. I am not particularly a fan of narrowband imaging although I find Ha and O111 add fullness to an LRGB image on the right object. Then its worth the time invested.

This is the one I put the effort into:

The other is more a comparison for myself of the TEC180 versus the Tak BRC250. They are quite similar although I find the images from the TEC more pleasing (not this particular image but overall).

Greg.
