  1. Hope it solves your problem.....don't put them in a gas oven as the gas produces a lot of water which doesn't actually dry the desiccant out very much.

    You should have a round plastic tool that helps you unscrew the cover on the desiccant chamber........

  2. If its an ATIK camera then your desiccant tablets need replacing or drying out if they are fitted to your type of camera. This is a common problem and they need drying once per year. I put mine (ATIK 383L+) in an electric oven for 2 hours at 180 degC.

    When you take them out of the oven do NOT touch them with your bare fingers/hands, I wrap them in foil to carry them to the camera and refit them with tweezers.

  3. Hi John, To answer your question on PixInsight forum I use pixelmath as follows:

    1. Stars Image = Original Image - Starless Image

    2. Work on Starless image as required

    3. New Image = Modified Starless Image + Stars Image

    And don't forget the Stars Image is just about a perfect star mask as you can get

    Hope this helps

    Hi John, Its a script in PI Script > Noise Reduction > MureDenoise. It is usually applied straight after the integration process and applied to each master before combining. This post refers:
