For entire functions of the form $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n \exp(i \theta_n t) z^n$ where the $\theta_n$ are integers satisfying
the Hadamard gap condition it is proved that Wiman's inequality can be improved
to $M(r) \leq \mu (r) (\log \mu (r))^(1/4) (\log \log \mu (r)) ^{1/2+ \delta} for almost every t and all r except a
set $E_\delta (t)$ of finite logarithmic measure.
