| | Yes, the free, as in free beer is one great advantage, but an
| | advantage not all will be able to take advantage of. Since
| | MMANA-GAL and EZNEC have visual interfaces so similar, being
| | able to use one is effectively being able to immediately use
| | the other. The learning curve into your interface takes just
| | a bit longer ... but, as you say, the availability of the
| | source makes it highly desirable to at least one group.

Thank you very much, Bill, I really appreciate your offer.
Please try to do so -if you are an unmoderated user of the
magazine list, of course- since our accounts to magazine
e-list are about to expire, while, after 7 years or so, our
group members' subscriptions to the magazine, have been
recently expired -the last one today:
