[TowerTalk] OT: Need Modeling File

OH4UN book Low band DXing has a bunch of information.  I used it to make a
cheezy wire vertical for 80M that works well....

Basically used the recommendations in the book, then optimized it for my
very poor soil conditions using MMANA (a free modeling software). Worked the
first time - with resonance right where I wanted it....no trimming was
required.

Subject: [TowerTalk] OT: Need Modeling File


I'm trying to get more comfortable with EZNec, but honestly, I'm still
hackin...

  Does anyone have a modeling file for a Force 12 40 Meter Vertical?  (A
vertical dipole that uses T bars to shorten the overall length)  What I'm
trying to figure out is how to use that idea to my advantage.  Not that I'm
trying to screw Force 12 out of a sale, just I'd like to build one for the
fun of it, and need to understand the ratios of the T Bars to the vertical
element.

  I'd kind of like to build one a little more efficient than theirs.
