Refmac (and dm and pirate and probably some other programs like phaser 
too) will only restore missing reflections if there are entries (albeit 
bblank ones) for those reflections in the MTZ file.

So it's not a matter of running uniquify before refmac, its a matter of 
running uniquify before you run *anything* - i,e. when you first create 
an mtz file.

If you are importing from another format using the 'Convert to MTZ' task 
in the GUI, this will be done for you unless you specifically turn it 
off. However it looks as though 'Truncate' task doesn't seem to do it by 
default - you have to click the button if you came in by this route.
