Thanks for the encouragement and advice. I will have to upgrade to the 64 bit versions of RegiStar and ImagesPlus. There is now no practical image file size limitation on ImagesPlus on version 3.8. My current version (2.75) is limited to about 190MB tiffs.

I was forced into this hardware upgrade as I want to explore using upsized files and other methods to obtain real enhanced resolution in my wide fields. I could not use IP's many functions on large mosaics. The Vela SNR mosaic was in tiff form about 500MB.

Below is a crop of M7 taken with the 300mm lens. The resolution has been improved by dithering and stacking upsized frames. Richarson Lucy enhancement and other methodswould improve it far more.

Much more work ahead.
