Interpreting Dipole Moment from a MNDO calculation



 I would like to calculate dipole moments using MNDO, so I began by looking
 at some small molecules to see what I could see, using MNDO that comes with
 Gaussian 92.  For HCl, MNDO gives 0.581 D (HF/DZP is 1.46, exp. is 1.08)
 and for H2O, MNDO gives 0.701 D (HF/DZP is 2.26, exp. is 1.85).  Am I
 reading the MNDO output wrong?
 Thanks!
