One practically HAS to do what Dale describes. The sigma levels of a difference map peak depends on how much it is above the mean noise level of the map. With high resolution (and given a cooperating molecule) it is very likely that the model is very good and complete, thus low mean map noise

Hi Fellows, I'd really like to emphasize the point in the Buster instructions "be careful when examining fo-fc at low levels" when solvent is excluded. If the solvent contribution is omitted where you suspect the ligand (e.g. occupancy 0.02 in Refmac), there will be a fo contribution there from
