Hi All,

Just wanted to share my imaging results of Jupiter through my 3 inch TV refractor.

The interesting thing is that I actually get better results enabling the CCD overdrive option in 

AstroIIDC's preferences panel despite the extra noise this feature produces.

It not only allows me to image at 7.5 fps which is essential in capturing the fast moving 

Jupiter features but both the color fidelity and image appearance is better.

For some reason the normal image of Jupiter appears squashed  but surface details might be 

somewhat better due to reduced noise.

Comments as to why are welcome.

Jim
