Yet another project...


For EZNEC users, AutoEZ (available from ac6la.com) is an EXCEL-based
optimizer - a 30 segment free demo version is also available. (I'm a
satisfied EZNEC/AutoEZ user with no monitary connections.)

I downloaded and used the demo version of EZNEC and I can say it was pretty
easy to get up and running with simple structures. I used it for a 20 m
dipole and I was quite happy when I raised the antenna at FD for its first
outing at full 30-ft height.

I keep meaning to buy the full version of EZNEC. Maybe this will push me
into it.
