I tried figuring out your email address to write directly but I
haven't heard back from you. I have a completely legal copy with a
manual that is surplus to me. I have two copies actually, one for me
and one for you, for any reasonable offer.

ps. It runs fine on XP Pro and 98SE. Just can't use long file names.

Thanks for the offer, Wes. I'll file it for 'maybe later'. Right now I
have the Antac Designer SV downloaded and it looks like a clone of the
ARRL Designer, only 10 years newer.

The company that made ARRL Designer (Compact Software) was bought by Ansoft.
They have greatly enhanced the capability, and the current offering is
available as a free student version he
http://www.ansoft.com/ansoftdesignersv/
There are also many other evaluation & student packages available on the net
for free. Check out this site as a starter:
http://www.rfengineer.cc/rftools.htm

Also, if you do an internet search on "RF circuit analysis software" or
something similar, you'll get lots of hits.

BTW, I run ARRL Designer under Win98SE and it's fine. What OS are you trying
to use it with?

Several years ago ARRL marketed a WIN3.xx software package called "Radio
Designer" which was a 'lite' copy of a commercial RF design program.
Unfortunately the program does not run under 16- and 32-bit Windows
environments, and the OEM is not interested in entering into further
arrangements with ARRL.

Does anyone know of a similar program in a price range (under $500)
attractive to hams?

Hans,

ARRL's Radio Designer Version 1.5 (copyrighted 1998) claims that it
runs on both Windows 9x amd NT systems, and I can confirm empirically
that it operates on Win XP Pro as well - an excerpt from the included
Help file is below:

" ARRL Radio Designer 1.5, a Windows (3.1, 3.11, 95 and NT)-based
computer program, lets you create computerized models of audio, radio
and electronic circuits so you can see how they work--and make them
work better--without actually building them....."

IIRC correctly, the last version sold by the ARRL was 1.51. If you
are using an older version, perhaps you can find a copy of this one
somewhere? Was originally $150, should be a copy at a fraction of
that out there now that it is discontinued.......
