Tom Roberts:

No, he averaged 20 measurements to get each of his 16
points, because that is what he fed to the harmonic analyser
according to the 1933 article[1]:

   The twenty or more readings for each of the sixteen
   observed azimuths are averaged and the averages are
   compensated for the slow linear shift of the whole
   interference system during the period of observation,
   as explained previously in connection with Fig. 9. The
   average readings for each set are then plotted on
   coordinate paper, to a large scale, for the purpose of
   harmonic analysis.
   [...]
   These charted "curves" of the actual observa- tions
   contain not only the second-order, half- period ether-
   drift effect, but also a first-order, full-period
   effect, any possible effects of higher orders,
   together with all instrumental and accidental errors
   of observation.
   [...]
   In order to evaluate precisely the ether-drift effect,
   each curve of observations has been analyzed with the
   Henrici harmonic analyzer for the first five terms of
   the Fourier series.

The above shows it was full-period curves that Miller
analysed, and the 1/2-turn bin was not the lowest one.  Your
insistance upon Miller's "halving" of the turns seems
groundless.

P.S.: You wrote earlier that you had on your HDD the
      digitised Miller data used in your paper and were
      ready to share it with whoever "just asks".  This is a
      reminder that I ask for it, for I should like to
      analyse that data, too.
