Hi Howard;

Thanks for the details.

It's the use of  the "Median High" for Noise Reduction  and leaving the Saturation at 0.90 that give it that "chunky" look in image processing

I would also reduce the "Rad 1.0"and "Rad 1.5" sliders as they tend to amplifies pixel noise.

HTH..

I redid the stack after some suggestions from Milton and rereading the appropriate sections of the manual and posted the log file for the first two images.  The third is the same as the second stack with different Image Control settings, which is on the post.
