Hi John,

You obviously have never read an Intel hardware manual (circa MDS-80).

BTW (seriously), will the new Mac products work with EZNEC?

This is something YOU should investigate. Mac now uses that
one-and-the-same Intel engine. It is suggested in the press that it
runs both operating systems. It costs more to do the same thing, but
you get that cool logo. I prefer OpenSource servers, applications,
and Linux. I haven't bought a M$ product in this millennium having
experienced the Windows Me platform (Chairman Bill's fin du cercle
joke on us all).

As I pointed out earlier, your question is answered in 10 minutes to
all variations that I offered. That analysis even gives degrees of
"better" as expressed in KHz and dB (quantifiable engineering terms
commonly used in serious antenna discussion). As a spoiler, I will
offer that the diagonal placement seriously disrupts both resonance
AND gain to the tune of 100s of KHz and 3-4 dB. Of course, the
qualifier "seriously" was meaningful only to me; that is, until I
quantified it.

You still haven't offered us what the qualified term "better" means to
YOU.

Rave on, OM, rave on. Meanwhile, I've got an antenna to put up.

Thanks for all the "help"

and by "help" I mean ...

I meant "better" as in which arrangement looks best strung with
Christmas lights, of course.

You were right, initially, to pose this as a thread of desperation.

For everyone's notes: EZnec runs quite nicely on an Intel based iMac.

I work both Microsoft, OSX, and am learning Linux.

Not that it was asked for, but my experience has been that MS OS is
great if you have paid support staff to make it run, Linux is nice, but
every once in a while, it kicks us back to 1985, (sorry - unforgivable
in 2006) and when I absolutely have to get it done with a minimum of..
what is the technical term? Oh yeah - with a minimum of peckering
around, I'll use OSX any day.

And my G5 Mac is cool to look at too - inside and out.

Of course one can get the answer from a modeling program. Of course,
the modeling program won't tell *why*.

Here is a video of me trying to get a modeling program to tell me why my
antenna design worked like it said...

Hey! BTW, once you get used to Richard's prose, he's enjoyable to
read, and there is truth in his ministrations.

You may be quite right, Richard may not be all bad (I imagine a cadence

But anyone which likes Shakespeare? Ewwwwwww!
