It is better than you think, Eric.
I, too, took the liberty of doing a real quick reprocessing of your image. I just raised and equalised the black points on your three channels.
I hope this helps,

I have to say that I had many doubts about this camera, but with good processing (thank dan and Lee) and decent signal(THE requirment for ANY observation) it looks pretty good.

Thanks Dan. I can't wait for another chance to go out and try it again. I am just a little limited on available objects because of my guiding camera is a real bad webcam. Right now I am trying to come up with a new focuser design for my newt so I can make an off axis guider to get plenty of light for guiding.

I like this processing job the best; sharpening isn't too aggressive. Nice image Eric!
