[phenixbb] Highly anisotropic data

[Pavel Afonine]

Hi Kostya,

how complete the data set is? Missing reflections in some resolution 
zones between 2.64A and inf may be sufficient to make the effective 
resolution lower or much lower than 2.64A which would explain why the 
map does not look like what you expect.
