As a foreigner, what's all this business about needing a license to
use antenna design software, Could somebody explain? What are the
license resrictions?

Yes, it does support Nec4, but as you already mentioned, you need a
license to use it.

Reg,

NEC2 is public domain, so there are no restrictions. NEC4 was developed by
Gerald Burke at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and requires an
end user license. The cost is $500.00. See
http://www.llnl.gov/IPandC/technolog...titles/nec.php for
info.

Dear Frank:
I run licensed NEC4 with an appropriate version of EZNEC on a PC. The
OS is W2000.

You mention "Nec 4 cards". Do you actually support NEC 4? I plan to
obtain
a license for NEC 4 in the near future, and your interface looks
interesting; The cost of GNEC from Nittany Scientific is a bit high, but
thought it is probably the only way to run NEC 4 on a PC.

Thanks for the info Mac. I see EZNEC/4 is $600.00, compared to $795.00 for
GNEC. I have no trouble with the FORTRAN compiled program on my PC,
although the graphics leave a little to be desired. Not sure what I will
do to improve it yet. Not that interested in GUI inputs, as I find it far
easier to edit NEC code directly.

Dear Frank: You are welcome.
I too date to the day when one punched cards. However, for most tasks, I
find Roy's front-end greatly to speed setting up the wires. For some really
large models, I use card images.
Computations are performed on a dedicated computer that has stone-simple
hardware.
