Not seen that in there Frank, perhaps the very latest version, but binning would be better still. I think the gamma/contrast control (perhaps that is what you were thinking of Frank??) in the main interface is just for cosmetic purposes . The setting of this does not affect the camera itself, it's just so you can see the stars. Taking this from Craig Stark's words on the PHD site.
Thanks Greg. Just part of the evolution of my DSO imaging. Might get it right one day.

Might not either. That is the more likely of the two I reckon. At least with Planetary one usually settles on a system of capture and processing and usually sticks with it once you start obtaining great images. Not so with this DSO caper. It seems like a constant evolution. All bizzarly entertaining in a strange way and providing a certain satisfaction when you get more organized. Hmmm
