The mount and guiding are controlled with one ASiair (the1600MM) and both CCDs have their own EAF. I have disabled dithering for now, to see what the price may be in added noise. To partially offset, I plan to run the 2 coolers at -20C rather than my normal -10.
Hi Peter,

Perhaps consider doing a back to back trial on just one scope of Dithering versus No-Dithering, using darks and on a relatively bright target to see the magnitude of the difference and therefore whether you then think it's worth implementing dither or possibly implement your idea to turn up the cooling for some improvement.

Best
