Hi Eleanor, Hi All,

As suggested by Andrew (thanks!), I've switched off the NCS in Phaser 
and this gave a solution in C2 (a=66.2 b=83.9  c=66.2   90 98.7  90) 
that refines much better than the others (R=0.32/0.39).

Still, I am not 100% convinced this is the correct cell/spacegroup... 
but it's a good starting point to continue the investigation.

Thanks to all for your help !

GIA
