Hi Dave and all,
  I have increased the SCALE parameter from 2 to 4. SCALE controls the
"Lattice spacing in no. of grids per Angstrom.". The Warning message has
gone now, however the corrected reaction field energy: still fluctuates far
more than I would expect and does for other Ligand-receptor systems (From
-22585.401762 to -73.254221). Does any one have any idea why this might be
happening. I am using the exact same settings as other calculations which
have turned out fine.

Thanks

Ben
