Re: [APML] Comet NEAT c2002 Q4



Hi Rodney,
 
It was a pleasure to play with your comet image. Should you have any doubt with SGBNR, I'll be glad to try to help.
 
In a couple of months we are going to release a first freeware limited edition of our new PixInsight, which will include a new implementation of SGBNR, greatly enhanced, as well as other powerful noise reduction tools.
 
Regards,
Juan
