Description

This year I'm surveying DSOs with as much exposure as I can get on each in a single night. Got a late start on this particular night and was slowed down by transient issues. Also, I made a mistake in EKOS and set the camera gain to 300 ADU while re-focusing mid-session, and neglected to set the gain back to unity, hence star bloat and crispy noise.
