I got this.

What confused me is that the input that I was referring to has the following
section:
    &MM_KIND H
      RADIUS 0.440
    &END MM_KIND
    &MM_KIND O
      RADIUS 0.780
    &END MM_KIND
With this all atoms get the same radii. So this part of the input it's
useless.
If I change it to HT and OT I get the expected values.
