Hi Ice,
wow, a definite improvement.
OK, to the cut and thrust.
Yes the ToUcam will make a humungous difference.
The 10" will be all you need aperture wise, and I used my ToUcam very easily with an MN66 and MN76. I even had very good success with an 80mm refractor.
In the brief time that I used a dob based scope (10" f5), it used the very well aligned finder technique. You will tire of this though, and eventually succumb to either a GEM, or maybe an old fork, mounted low. (always thought I would try one but never did).
Processing is a whole new lesson, the wavelts are a weird concept, but just try the sliders a little at a time.
Get a good image, and let me know, possibly off group. I have a slave who does my waveltting for me (my 19 year old son), and I could get him to try it.
Gary
