Am trying to run an optimization on my 3 element yagi which I finally
got into the editor, which was difficult enough.
The optimizer says: no variables selected

Empty list field.

Oh, how I hate this.
Praise Bill Gates for his user-friendly WINDOWS
and to hell with all amateur softwares.

Nowhere in the helps and getting started they explain that.
I do not want to learn from examples, I rather work from the
basics upwards. Would anyone learn math from a calculus
formula without knowing the arabic numbers first?

Am in a baad mood tooday.

Does your model have symbols defined (using the 4nec2 specific SY card?)
That's what it uses to populate the list.

Which editor are you using? If you already have a NEC input deck, it's
easiest to use the non-graphical editor.

What are you optimizing for.

Sure, you can whine about wanting better help files, but face it, Arie
is providing the product for free. If you are already proficient in
NEC, the help provided is fairly useful. If you are learning if from
scratch, yep, it's a pain.
