I just tried ATWT 1 versus ATWT 1+3 versus TGVD on an image from last night and ATWT 1+3 won by a hair. 



Where does Masked Stretch fit into all of this?  It seems to help me to use it right after I go non-linear and then I do the ATWT followed by clipping.

Masked Stretch takes a linear image and makes it non-linear.
