"For those who don't know,  Dan McGuire AC6LA, is about to release an
seriously updated version of MultiNEC which he calls AUTOEZ and it works
with late versions of EZNEC 5."

AutoEZ is now available, see http://ac6la.com/autoez.html

Relevant to this list, an example in the documentation shows RDF being computed (in this case for a Beverage, model supplied by W8WWV).  See "Calculate 3D Data" here: http://ac6la.com/aeuse3d.html

Another relevant example is for feeding a 4 square array.  See "Phasing Lines ..." here: http://ac6la.com/aetltu.html  This example uses the W7EL "Simplest" (all transmission line) type feed but it is also possible to use any kind of phase shift network (such as a W1MK type) via the EZNEC v5 L Networks feature.  For both T-lines and L networks, loss may be included in the calculations.
