Has anyone else experienced problems reading residual dipolar coupling restraints in AMBER 7? My input file for RDCs is shown below:

&align ndip=12, dcut=-1.0, gigj=-3.163, s11=-10.0, s22=-10.0, s12=0.0, s13=0.0, s23=0.0, id(1)=48, jd(1)=49, dobs(1)= 9.82, id(2)=111, jd(2)=112, dobs(2)= 9.74, id(3)=302, jd(3)=303, dobs(3)= 9.80, id(4)=365, jd(4)=366, dobs(4)= 9.82, id(5)=427, jd(5)=428, dobs(5)= 9.82, id(6)=490, jd(6)=491, dobs(6)= 9.74, id(7)=681, jd(7)=682, dobs(7)= 9.80, id(8)=744, jd(8)=745, dobs(8)= 9.82, id(9)=211, jd(9)=212, dobs(9)= 9.93, id(10)=243, jd(10)=244, dobs(10)= 9.96, id(11)=590, jd(11)=591, dobs(11)= 9.55, id(12)=622, jd(12)=623, dobs(12)= 9.59, &end
The output file from SANDER indicates that the RDCs are being read but the program is not using them properly:

If I use these same restraints with AMBER 6 I get a reasonable result so I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem.
Thanks,
