Decided to complete this image rather than wait to capture more data. The data set was super clean with almost no gradient so adding additional data with possible gradients is not going to bring out anymore fine detail.
Final noise reduction was only 2 pixels but could have used 1 pixel
Color Matrix H ( H+O ) O Duoband 100R , 50R+ 25G + 25B , 50G + 50B
Style Scientific ( Constancy )
LRGB Method emulation 50/50 Layering
Minor adjustments in Red bias and bright and dark saturation

Great stuff, Martin!
But no gradient -- where's the fun in that?

Thanks Mike,
Appreciate it
Don’t worry I get my fair share of gradient when I image from my main residence in the big City under Bortle 8 skies. Chalk and cheese the difference between both locations
Clear Skies

That is an excellent result. Could you maybe elaborate on the work flow you used and the options you considered but did not use? There is a pending question just posted by almw59 asking about processing dual band OSC data. That could be a good place for you to elaborate to help out those of us who are struggling.
Thanks,
Jeff
