HI Brain and Dave , again ... lol
to continue on this topic of gain / offset in NB imaging , ive included some Wizard shots from last night.
singles in SHO .
Gain 400 / offset 120 300 sec . No darks / NO flats / no BIas , only done for the purpose of trying all the new gear connected...
AA183M hypercam , Temp 8 deg C, ioptron IEQ 30 Pro PHD2 50 mm guider GPCAM2 .
keep in mind , im all new to SHO using SGP ( for now)
i don't mind switching over to SC 3.1 if i have to.
i will plate solve with either SGP or APT then image in SC 3.1 Pro ( silly i know) but hey its easy.
----------------------
here are the 3- SHO images of 7380 Wizard.
if you guys need me to run any test in real time please post a few simple steps to me ( im not the smartest person on the planet) ...

Mitch,
Only the Ha image is showing in your post. I don't know what happened to OIII.
This is a good quality light frame. How many do you have? It's too bad you don't have darks. This is definitely stackable.
Next time take 15 darks before the lights and 15 darks after the lights. You will then have a total of 30 darks that you will use to create one master dark. I think you will be very pleased with the results.
For now I would not worry about taking images with all three narrowband filters. Build knowledge with Ha and then move onto the others. I've gotten good at Ha, next step is OIII when the weather clears. Several weeks ago I used an exposure calculator at Starizona. (Actually I had to modify it for use with CMOS cameras.) It told me that I needed a 200-second exposure for Ha and 90 seconds for OIII.

Don't worry about the 'attachment is missing', this issue is under active investigation with Robin and myself.

Mitch,
Dave and I have had a lengthy conversation with cuivenion on the topic of Offset.
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1209
Silly question: Have you dialed in enough Offset in your images? Offset 0 is evil.

Many years ago I applied for a credit card and when I received it in the mail it said "Brain"

It shows through in your problem solving and analysis technique.
