I noticed the largest improvment in RAW over JPEG when I started to process my RAWs using Linear conversion. The greatest advantage was that image calibration (Darks and Flats) is much more accurate when everything is done in linear. This method gives much more control over the stretching of the image and allows for improved final results. Probably the best example was my image of M45. When done in non linear I was not able to bring out any nebulosity, but once I processed everyhting in RAW linear I was able to show quite a bit.
Anyhow keep them coming!
Cheers
