Description

Scope/Mount: StellarVue SV70T Refractor with SFFR-70APO Focal-reducer/Field-flattener, Celestron CI-700 Mount Camera: ZWO ASI1600MMC monochrome with ZWO LRGB filters and Antlia 3nm SHO filters Guiding: QHY5L-IIM through Orion Thin OAG, PHD guiding software Exposure: Ha:(12) 300 secs @ gain=300, Oiii: (24) 300 secs @ gain = 300, RGB: each channel (10) 120 sec @ gain=200 Software: Nebulosity, Pixinsight Palette = HOO plus RGB for stars. This is my 2nd attempt at catching the Squid. I upgraded the narrowband filters to 3nm which definately makes a difference. NoiseXterminator also enabled greater intensity stretching. But I still want to to capture at least 10 hours of narrowband data.
