I don't remember the dimensions, but I remember that in the
instructions, EZNEC could not make accurate measurements with parallel
wires within a certain distance like 8-10 inches.

(someone correct me here.)

That's not correct. However, it is essential to align the segment
junctions so they're directly across from each other when modeling
closely spaced parallel wires.

Is this true for 3 as behind a version or two.


This is true for every NEC-based program, which includes all versions of
EZNEC. See "Parallel Wires" in the EZNEC manual index.

You wrote the program, so I am not arguing with you, I will check it
out again. I sure feel I remember that being a restriction. Funny
thing is, that I haven't set learning the program to a higher priority
since I didn't think it would model what I want to experiment with,
which is parallel wires/poles.

I'll have to look into that more.

Thanks for the heads up.

BTW what is the upgrade cost for 4.0 and 5.0 from 3.0?

Thanks
