Sometimes, though, you don't even know what question to ask...

It might be faster to ask a simple question about
"how do I do X".. and the response you get might be "go look for X in 
the archives"

There is a fair amount of "art" in most people's use of NEC: 
particularly when you're looking at things like modeling arrays with 
multiple feedpoints or running the same model with multiple feed 
configurations (strategic use of 1 meg loads and shorts and knowing hwo 
to measure voltage and current)..

I would say it's kind of like learning to use SPICE.
