No.  For each data run, usually consisting of twenty
interferometer turns, he averaged the drift-correct-
ed  fringe-shifts  for each of the sixteen (Tom, not
eight!) azimuths, and plotted the result to a  large
scale.   These  full-period  (Tom, not half-period!)
curves he fed to a mechanical harmonic analyser mea-
suring  the  first,  the  second, and all the higher
harmonics:

        http://oi66.tinypic.com/209q2dl.jpg

For each epoch shown are four graphs: observed full-
period  signal, first harmonic, second harmonic, and
residual.

It is the magnitude and phase of the thus-determined
second-order  effect  that he used in the subsequent
analysis.  Hicks showed that the first-order  effect
was  also  to  be  expected -- because finite fringe
width implies asymmetry -- but Miller was not  aware
of it at the time of the experiment and couldn't use
it later because it  depends  on  the  frige  width,
which was not recorded.

Tom was not aware of it either:

   Because  of the 180 degree symmetry of the inter-
   ferometer, any real signal  can  depend  only  on
   orientation modulo 180 degrees.

and  so in section III he averaged the half-periods,
while Miller never did it.

I  find  his  analysis quite "complete," but, as Tom
says, modern error analysis  was  not  at  the  time
available.

Do  you really agree with Tom?  I mean, have you re-
ally found the said correction in  Shtyrkov's  paper
and  can  point  the  equation(s)  into which it has
crept?
