Hi Eleanor,

I hate to disagree with you, even partially, but it depends on whether or not 
you're doing phase combination with external phases.  In the usual case with 
just model information, SIGMAA doesn't take the absolute value of 2mFo-DFc so 
it can be positive or negative and goes with the original PHIC.  When phase 
combination is carried out, then the phase of the map coefficient is different 
from any of the input phases, and FWT has to be combined with PHFWT.

There's a discussion in the documentation: 
http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/html/sigmaa.html#files.

Regards,

Randy
