Thanks Clive, I'm truly appreciating the starting point- until the CGE 11 and other upgraded equipment arrives I'm having to stick to planetary only photographically (the old Atlas has severe play in the DEC shaft, I hacked up the tripod and put the head on the 12" pier) and am centering and cropping to 400 x 400 px- definately speeds up the processing. I'm off to drift align and colimate, Clear Sky clock says I have a 5/5 seeing at 0100 local, 0500 UTC... Hopefully I will have something worthy of posting tomorrow.
