Default Help with EZNEC- Hey Roy!

Try this (with Eznec 5)

Step 1 Open (or write) your file.
Step 2 Do farfield plot , then save
this file as (Tracefile (.pdf,pdf3)
You need to name this file!.

Step 3 Do the SAME steps for Antenna #2 (and
3,4,5, ect) be sure to use diff names!

Now, Step 4,go to (view, traceview), and this

will give a warning.Run , under the "traceview
window, the FIRST FILE you named.

Step 5 Now , click on "Add trace". insert the name of
the SECOND file you saved ( Warning- both must be in
SAME direction, AZMATH, or ELEVATION for this to
overlay) , and both ants pointing the SAME WAY!

Step 6 either print it, or add another file .
Think you find this works pretty well .
NOTE: this DOESN'T set yhe max gain to BOTH
antennas, but is great for comparison purposes.
Think its pg 93 in the pdf manual (not to be confused
with 93 on the adobe screen!

Hi Jim,
I tried this and it's not working for me.
I can only get one trace in the view.
Can you walk me through your sequence of clicks?
Thanks, Mike
