Dear Rob, at 1.5A resolution, you can comfortably run shelxe. If there is some useful phase information in your solution, this should complete your model, remove model bias and the resulting composition might tell you the proper space group. Rename your PDB-file into 'mymodel.pda' (pda, not pdb), convert the mtz to 'mymodel.hkl' and run shelxe mymodel.pda -a10 -s0.4 (where 0.4 corresponds to 40% solvent model. You don't need to be very accurate).
