[John Simmons]

Have you tried the modeling with NEC4? I have and can run the model if 
you send me the model file.

I talk about using the Mininec ground solution vs the Nec2 real ground solution and the effect of current taper on the far field pattern and how an unterminated Beverage will “self terminated” when long enough.
