That seems to have worked. Thanks! Ron

Okay... this is whacked. I got the "update edge" screen again this morning when attempting to logon to ABS. However, I tried again and didn't get it. Seems to be almost random. I then tried it with the incognito window and didn't have the problem…

Adam... FYI... I just got the "update Edge" screen when going to the ABS home screen. Looks like this issue has not gone away yet. Ron

Thanks Adam! Ron

Adam, Would it be possible to use some iTelescope data to illustrate a good technique? I have the California Nebula in LRGB and SHO calibrated frames, as well as the masters produced by WBPP. Would these help? Ron

Brilliant! The custom loading button did the trick. Took all of 10 seconds. Thanks! Ron

Jonathan, I think that most good quality shielded cable will work fine. These are what I bought. Amazon.com: JSAUX USB 3.0 Printer Cable, Type A Male to B 3.0 Male (3.3ft/1M) USB 3.0 Type B Upstream Cord Nylon Braided Compatible with Docking Statio…

The ZWO USB cables are notoriously sketchy... ask me how I know. I recommend replacing them first with good quality cables. Also, don't run them close to other cables just to prevent the possibility of cross currents between cables. Ron

Thanks gentlemen! I had to read your responses a few times to really understand the processes... but I think I get it now. Hopefully, this discussion also provides some value to other members. Happy Thanksgiving! Ron Clanton

Adam, Yes, I have watched that before and it does an excellent job of explaining star reduction using screen math. I have also watched another video explaining when to check "unscreen stars" in StarX (linear vs. non-linear). I guess what I'm missi…

Thanks Mike! So (if I understand), that is why "screen" indicates additive/subtractive mathematical operations (e.g., projecting two images at equal weight)? Then "unscreen" (or maybe more accurately "non-screen") is indicative of a multiply/divide…
-
Just to be clarify my question/request... I've watch the excellent video posted on 3/7/23 that explains the correct methods for using screened and unscreened methods... and their relationship to linear versus non-linear images. So (as I said) I und…

That's awesome Adam... I would have expected nothing less! Ron

This new PixInsight Process (which Bill Blanchard and Mike Cranfield have migrated from pixel math) looks very promising for both OSC and narrowband processing. I also watched the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6se3b1ZotMc and it seems to he…

Wow! What a difference in the stars... total fix. Is there a down side to using bicubic b-spline? It seems so superior to Lanczos. Thanks! Ron
-
Adam, LOL! No, I don't want you to process my images. I've attached a screen capture of the stars and a link to the master files of the LRGB. Going forward, I think I will stick to 1x1 only. I didn't have any problems with a prior image when the …

Thanks Ray and Adam! I guess that I have to assume that iTelescope calibrated the flats correctly... which they probably do. As you may know, they give you the option of downloading all raw data, calibrated flats and darks, or the fully calibrated …

Oh silly me... thanks! Wow! A really handy script! Thanks! Ron

Mike, I'm trying to access the link and am getting an "403 Forbidden" error. Thanks, Ron

Yes, that was a change made a few months ago around the same time they released SPCC... which is a pretty big improvement over PCC. Ron
