Thanks Richard. It's really great to have someone like you looking on who is prepared to offer advice on how to improve the image and make the best of some hard to get data. Thanks again.

Thanks Trevor but I elected to stick with ten minutes for this image because at 2M focal length guiding was going to be critical and at this stage it is an almost unknown quantity. Maybe longer on some future image but untill everything is sorted I will take shorter and more images.

Thanks Mike. That will be the next challenge once this moon disappears and I get all the extras I have ordered and get them all working. I will probably redo the Ha as well without having to crop the image. So far the optics look good it's just the junky mechanicals I have to replace.

Thanks Frank. Now I know some of the problems you have had to overcome with your G11 and C14.
