[TowerTalk] Yagi Optimizing Software

[Máximo EA1DDO_HK1H]

It is quite funny to see how in the states side most/all hams use Eznec.

And in EU most use Mmana (entry and medium level) and 4NEC2 (medium and high level). Some EU hams use Eznec as well.


>From my point of view, I have Eznec in my computer, and I used time to time, but lacks two key points; no optimizer machine, and it is not able to plot gain/impedance for a range of frequencies.


By the way, 4NEC2 opens Eznec files as well.

MMana-GAL has basic optimizing and it's very popular in EU - freeware.  I
learned modeling using MMANA but eventually stopped using it because
everyone that I talked too used EZNEC and getting help with use or design
was hard as they did not know MMANA.

AutoEZ is an Excel-based toolset serving as a front end for EZNEC.  Somewhat
more of a learning curve than MMANA but you can do just about anything you
can imagine with the pair.  Small fees for both EZNEC and AutoEZ.

I have used YO in the past with good results.

It's still available on an old DOS computer.


What current software has optimizing routines?

I have older versions of YW and EZNEC.

I don't see optimizing routines in either.
