They were not interleaved; however, some versions of the driver did
offset sector 0 on each successive track so that spiral reads did not
miss a rotation each time. As with any physical sector manipulation,
none of this matters to images. It's only logical interleave (where the
driver knows a mapping between real sector numbers and those in the
headers) that causes problems. As far as I know, this was never done
on H17-style disks.
I've now uploaded the three CP/M distributions and my collection of HUG
disks (some of which probably duplicate what is alread there).
