An excellent and easy to follow description of the method of moments can
be found in Kraus' _Antennas_, Second Ed. I assume it's in the third
edition also, but it's not in the first. The NEC-2 manual recommends
R.F. Harrington, _Field Computation by Moment Methods_ (McMillan, 1968)
but I haven't seen this book.


I'm looking for a text to help me increase my understanding of antennas
beyond what is contained in the ARRL Antenna Handbook. It looks like
"Antennas" by Kraus is it. Can anyone recommend any others?

Thanks and 73,

Kraus is not only an antenna expert, he is a
world-class authority on the entire field of
Electromagnetics, based on Maxwell's equations.
His mathematics is elegant.

....and his writing is lucid. I read his first edition, a gift from my
Father, and knew where I wanted to go to grad school. He is also a very
fine person.
Buy and read his books.
