PCM and the radius of the spheres

Hi,
I perform the PCM calculation of molecules with 39 atoms, including gallium atom (number 9). Listing too NESFP = 39:
        INPUT FOR CAVITY DEFINITION
         ---------------------------
    ATOM         COORDINATES           RADIUS
    1   -0.2924    0.6179   -0.1546    1.7000

   39    4.0002   -5.1629    1.0636    1.5000
**** ERROR **** PCM SPHERE(S) MUST HAVE A POSITIVE RADIUS
EXECUTION OF PC GAMESS TERMINATED ABNORMALLY AT 23:18:32 LT  21-DEC-2010

Why the error message appears? Why is the sphere radius for the gallium is zero? What can I do to calculate PCM lasted?

regards,
Alexandr
