Can someone tell me what is the improvement from YO 6.55 to YO 7.0.

Is it already able to model OWA type Yagis - i.e. would it model 
correctly the close elements ? What impedance you get if you model NW3Z 
design. 6.55 gives you something like 35 Ohms while mathematically 
excellent but user unfriendly EM-broadcast professional gives you 48 
Ohms which is the reality.

73 !
