M42 again

This one is similar curves but different noise reduction.
More frames needed. A different curve to show Trap detail.
I discovered last night I have a drive PEC index error and
the PEC was engaging at a different point on the curve
to where it should. This means all of my recent results have
had PEC actually working against me rather than correcting
or zeroing most of it out.
This is not all bad news. It means the pics can only get better
once it's fixed. The culprit is the toothed belt gear on the end
of the worm. It has somehow slipped and turned approx 2hrs
on my 'clockface' index wheel. Loose grubscrew!
