I have just finished a shot of the area with my Rcat which I am happier with. Again forgot to set the gain correctly. So many things to get right!

No you have to set the gain and offset when you select a mode each time.
I use:
Broadband Mode 0 gain 26 offset 10
Narrowband Mode 1 gain 56 offset 50
I have also used Extended full well mode. There is a new one Mode 3 that would be the one to use as it has lower noise. I'd have to look up what settings I used now. I think it was Gain 26 Offset 10 again but in mode 3.
I'll have to confirm that.
That mode would be good for taming Antares or Alnitak if imaging the Horsehead or the core of Orion.
Greg.
