Hi Careina 30% of the origin peak is fairly respectable. You could probably make it higher by varying the high res cutoff. You have 2 Ang: it may be that the NCS doesn't extend to that resolution, so making it a bit lower might improve the signal/noise ratio. It would be nice to see the plot of the kappa=180 section, but from the log file it's clear you have a lot of NCS 2-folds in the ab plane (kappa=180, omega=90), so my guess would be a 222 tetramer aligned with an NCS 2-fold parallel to the c axis. If so this should give you an translational NCS peak somewhere in the z=1/2 Harker section of the native Patterson. From the solvent content how many molecules in the a.u. do you expect?
