Hi Graeme

This has nothing to do with Randy's 1986 paper on minimally-biased map
coefficients from partial structures (which I assume is the one you're
referring to) since as you said yourself these are experimental, not
partial structure, phases.  Rather, this is Blow & Crick's (1959)
result where they showed that coefficients m*F with the centroid phase
give the electron density with the least mean-square error over the
unit cell.  But maybe the error in the density is not something you
need to worry about, since if the signal/noise ratio is sufficiently
high the peaks will stand out against the background anyway?

Paul's solution looks like the best one (once tested!).

Cheers
