Thanks Eleanor and everyone else that replied privately. 

Twinning was a common thought and the data was not by several tests. 

The MR was solved by getting better data, clean 2.8A vs. the 3.0A I had.
With this data phaser was able to solve it easily in R32 with 3
molecules. There was not significant conformational change. 

I believe the difficulty with the earlier data was due to a
translational NCS, but am not completely sure. The density is not great
and the R factors very high. I did try refining in R3 and the density
and statistics didn't improve.
