And it has an optimizer routine, which EZNEC does not, and at Dayton a
few years ago, W7EL said he had no intention to write one.

I use EZNEC V5 with the NEC2 engine. I like it, and find it pretty
intuitive to use, but have friends who swear by 4NEC. I downloaded it,
but the user interface was sufficiently different that I have never
taken the time to learn to use it, and EZNEC does most of what I need
(sure would like that optimizer). :)
