New 4nec2 version
 
For those still interested,

I just released the new 5.6. version for the 4nec2 antenna modeling
freeware, for which I created a much tighter interface with the
ItsHF/VOACAP propagation prediction software. For more info see
http://home.ict.nl/~arivoors/

Greetings,
Arie.

All,

Has anyone tried this successfully? If so what OS and level did you use? I
tried, the installation went issue however attempts to execute the app result in
an error: 50003.

Has anyone successfully gotten this to work?

Thanks - Dan

Dan, I just loaded version 5.6 on my Windows XP computer, and it seems to
run fine. Also shows the NEC code, and the NEC output file. It can also
implement the Sommerfeld/Norton ground model. Just miss double clicking a
line of code to help with the card entry.

Yes numerous people did,.. at least previous versions.

I thought I did mention something about the OS capable of running 4nec2
on my website, but maybe I was not clear enough. On the other hand it's
alważs possible you trapped a yet unknow problem.

Concerning the operating systems, overhere I did test things on W-98,
W-me, W-XP and W-2000.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Arie.

p.s. To get help editing the Nec2 or Nec4 cards, select the 'Nec
editor'on the settings menu or avoid all Nec related stuff and use the
drag and draw style editor.

It seems to be the asycfilt.dll that is in error. What version of Win98 are you
using? What is the size and date of asycfilt.dll please?

Thanks - Dan

Arie, what I like about NEC are the NEC cards. I have been using NEC for so
many years I feel lost without direct access to the deck. Anyway your
comments are appreciated, and I guess I should read the help instructions.

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.

Can you advise where I can get wgnuplot ? The program complains that I
need this file
but I cannot locate it on your site.

Thanks

The error has been found, somehow my copy of a dll was corrupted. It now loads.
I am looking forward to using it.

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

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?

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.

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.
