Date: 94-01-06 09:02:40 EST From: CQ-Contest-Relay@TGV.COM Subj: Antenna Software Results To: KA9FOX First of all, thanks to all who responded to my question about the best antenna modeling software. Several people asked for a summary of responses, so here it is. ELNEC (62.5% of the responses) Pros 1. Will work on a 386 2. Shows Isometric view of antenna 3. Good documentation 4. No copy protection 5. Inexpensive Cons 1. Needs a math co-processor to do complex calculations. AO 4.x (25% of the responses) Pros 1. Good Graphics 2. More features and can do more complex calculations 3. Has a good optimization algorithm Cons 1. Copy protected So if you have the same questions I had, maybe this will help with your decision. As for me, I think I'll be an ELNEC owner in the next couple of weeks. Thanks again for the responses. '73... Kevin N1EPU [WEBSTER_KER@CCSU.CTSTATEU.EDU]
