OK. I guess I was thinking of subtracting 2fo-Fc maps, which would give 
essentially (Fo1-Fo2) coefficients. But coming out of phenix it will be at 
least 2mFo-DFc, with different m's and D's for the two datasets. Makes it 
rather more complicated.

Good points. But also, the traditional isomorphous difference map is not as susceptible 
to model bias issues compared to a real space difference map (or a "vector" 
isomorphous difference map).

        crystallogrphy,

        If you did everything correctly, you should be able to directly calculate the difference 
map in Coot from the MTZ file generated by PHENIX. You would need to open it with "Open 
MTZ" rather than "Auto open MTZ" and then select the appropriate map coefficients. 
Note that what Tim described (a real space difference map) is technically different from the 
traditional isomorphous difference map where the SF amplitudes of the two data sets are subtracted 
prior to the map calculation.

    Should be the same, due to linear property of the Fourier transform, EXCEPT 
for possible scaling differences and treatment of missing data.  This latter 
could be significant, since presumably the traditional methods omits 
reflections unless present in both datasets, whereas in Tim's method each map 
will be made with all data available in that dataset. As a result, the largest 
coefficients in Tim's difference map might be the reflections which are absent 
in one map and present in the other.  But if both have good completeness, it  
may not matter.

             Dear crystallogrphy,

             you can open the PDB file with Coot, then use File -> Open MTZ to 
read one
             mtz-file after the other into Coot. Coot will offer to generate 
the map
             coefficients from the previously loaded PDB file.

             Once you have both maps, you can go to Extensions -> Maps -> Make 
a Difference
             Map to create the difference map.

             In order to see both positive and negative density, you choose 
Extensions ->
             Maps -> Set Map is a Difference Map.

             Regards,
             Tim
