J.

Yeah, I renewed my KD6JDJ license. I used to have K6LZC and before that
KL&LL. But, I sure dont know anything about HAM radio any more. I havent
operated a HAM radio in about 30 years.

I've been playing with receiving pictures from the NOAA VHF satellites and
I want to know about antennas for that project.

I heard about the EZNEC program this morning. I seem to have dificulty
learning anything associated with computer programs. But Ill look for the
program on the web tonight and try to make sense of it.

Thanks
Jerry

Dear Jerry Martes - no call - no location:
EZNEC contains a few files describing simple antennas and good
instructions. You should work through some of those files and
read/study the instruction provided. Prof. Cebik's web site contains
additional instruction and useful observations about antenna modeling
programs. Cebik.Com
As I recall, Prof. Cebik has a book on the subject too.

P.S. Are you KD6JDJ, who has a name that is similar to yours?

I would like to estimate the radiation pattern from a pair of

dipoles.
I've been told that there are computer programs available for drawing
antenna patterns. I's like to try drawing the pattern from my antenna
concept, but would sure like to get some help with learning how to do

it
with EZNEC. Is there anyone on this news froup who has time and

patience
and who might be willing to E-mail help to me??
