Gary, you have gathered plenty of data here and your post processing seems adequate to produce pleasing results but you have some issues with your focusing. The detail that you should have is just not there. If you are finding it difficult to focus your telescope, I suggest you buy ( or make ) a Bahtinov Mask. Do a Google Search on them and you will find out all about how to use one. It is also important to remember to lock your focuser once you've achieved focus. Good luck.
