You might want to try 4nec2, available at the usual NEC software repositories
http://www.si-list.org/swindex2.html

Fast, decent editor, runs on Windows, does optimizing, graphics (including 
3d), etc.  and best of all, it's FREE (as in beer)

I don't know if it does everything YO does, but certainly, the price is 
right.  The author releases new versions every year or so.
