M42 advice
Posted: Sat Dec 14, 2019 10:41 pm
So my latest M42 has currently 8 hrs of Data ,No lps filters and to be fair im quite happy with it given my processing skills ,posted on AstroBin, https://www.astrobin.com/dcsoar/#c428685 a chap has kindly commented about the relish background background and he uses Pi , i dont want to bother with PI ,PI im sure is a fine program and im confident Startools can overcome any misgivings i have made,could you advise Ivo on this and point me in the right direction .
