Hello
In ARRL 1974 :

By tracing the directional pattern of the antenna system on a sheet of
tissue paper, then placing the paper over the azimuthal map,

the "coverage" of the antenna will be readily evident.

I suppose that in 2005, this could be done with computers !

I'm looking for such software !

Any ideas, any experiences ?


You can use the VOA's program for producing area coverage maps. It is
free and can be download at:

But, it is not easy to use.

MultiNec by Dan Maguire, AC6LA, will interface between NEC programs
like EZNEC and the VOA program making it much easier to use.

MultiNec can be downloaded at:

Note: To run MultiNec requires that you have Excel installed on you
system.
