The graph showed I am well past the knee of the curve with my 180 seconds subs. The recommended exposure settings didn't change the exposure time, but raised the ISO setting to 1600 (from the 800 I am using now). I will have to sit down and figure out what this all means now

You're welcome Bob.
I don't know much about the "Recommended" settings analysis from the program. For my system it recommended ISO = 1600 and Exposure Time = 180 sec. The Recommended settings yielded almost identical Stack SNR, so, no improvement there, but, it would have lowered the Dynamic Range by 0.5 Stop. Because of my 1 min "Unavoidable delay" the much larger number of images (shorter exposure time) would have caused a lot of lost imaging time. The Recommended settings may work for some individuals, but, they didn't work for me.
Just my opinion.
Cheers,
Steve
