Title: EZNEC These Days? Post by: Tom WA3KLR on April 07, 2021, 07:39:10 PM I never put EZNEC on this newest p.c. I found my latest version from 2001 - EZNEC 3.0 on DVD. Worked fine for what I was doing with wire antennas. I haven't tried to load it. The disc says for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME, remember from 2001. I don't need to optimize a yagi design.
The latest version I saw mentioned on the internet was EZNEC 6+. I did not see any way to purchase EZNEC these days. Obviously Roy Lewallen is/has thrown in the towel on his product at some point. The questions are : Is a new version purchasable? If so, what does it offer over 3.0? Do p.c. experts think the old 3.0 will run o.k. with Windows 10 Home? Thanks. Title: Re: EZNEC These Days?

Post by: Tom WA3KLR on April 07, 2021, 10:09:25 PM Thanks Kevin. I could not find eznec info when I was researching it a week ago for what ever reason. I will study what eznec 6 has to offer and/or try the 3.0 disc I have.
Thanks guys. Title: Re: EZNEC These Days?

I'm up and running EZNEC + v.6.0 now, many new features to learn since v.3.0! AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
