I've just downloaded EZNEC v. 5.0 demo.
I'm only just starting to learn the basic concepts from the beginning.

Thanks

there is a program where you can input the shape and size of an antenna
and it will predict how well it would work.

Is there such a program and how simple is it to use?

There are a couple programs out there that are free for use. The demo
program of EZ-nec, and 4Nec2.

What I would suggest is getting a copy of EZNEC. Then go through the
tutorials.

As for easy or difficult, you sound like a real new guy - that's okay, no
one was born knowing all this stuff, and we all have to start somewhere.
The important thing is to start. It will probably be a little daunting for
a while.

How familiar are you with the basic concepts? Then we'll know where to
start. There are some good web references out there, depending on where
you want to start.
