Help with EZNEC
I'm comparing elevation plots of an antenna. They have different
forward gains, this makes it difficult to compare the lobe shape. Is there a way to equalize the gains to do a comparison? Example: I have an antenna that is -19dbi and one that is -23dbi. Can I add 4db of gain to one to make the comparison easier? Mike |

Kinda thought so! got copy of THAT loop antenna-
Lots of loss, but abt 28 dB F-B ratio (great for eliminateing stations off the back, and , as stated very broadband! And the model at 12 mhz, did to 1.8 MHz , also 28 MHz- swr is flat (20:1)!, but the directivity is seems to be flat,too. An interesting antenna. Tks to Bill W5WVO for the model! But the 4 db diff (on the angles of "radiation", probably mean little on a change of pattern.maybe 2-3 degrees! (3dB points)! Definately NOT for trying to xmit to! But with a 20 dB preamp looks like a great recieve antenna! Jim NN7K Example: I have an antenna that is -19dbi and one that is -23dbi. Can I add 4db of gain to one to make the comparison easier?

Try this (with Eznec 5)
Step 1 Open (or write) your file. Step 2 Do farfield plot , then save this file as (Tracefile (.pdf,pdf3) You need to name this file!.

Now, Step 4,go to (view, traceview), and this will give a warning.Run , under the "traceview window, the FIRST FILE you named. Step 5 Now , click on "Add trace". insert the name of the SECOND file you saved ( Warning- both must be in SAME direction, AZMATH, or ELEVATION for this to overlay) , and both ants pointing the SAME WAY! Step 6 either print it, or add another file . Think you find this works pretty well . NOTE: this DOESN'T set yhe max gain to BOTH antennas, but is great for comparison purposes.

Hey you two, stop it, this is my thread about EZNEC modeling and Flag antennas. :-) Mike- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Noted and understood. Its national 'flag" day is it not? With respect to EZNEC. MANA is much more ambedextrous than Eznec. It does provide all the old stuff that eznec does but it also supplies what is new from the last decade. When you model using optimisation where the program predetermines direction to take it opens up a whole new world with respect to antenna design. Ofcourse even optimisation is not new to antennas which is why the program is offered for free to amateurs. There is also a newsgroup based on MANA so there is no need to search the amateur newsgroups for the author to report bugs. I don't think eznec can match it in any way, even with the allowable number of segments used let alone the number of variables available. If you want to design an antenna that is in equilibrium so that focussed radiation is denied it is just one type of antenna design that cannot be met using eznec. A lot of time has passed by since eznec came on the scene as well as many changes and additions with respect to antenna programs so why impede your antenna learning by using old technology? It certainly cannot be the cost. Art |
