I received my copy of the NEC-WIN BASIC Antenna Modelling software
from Paragon Technology this week. This is release 1.0, which was
offered with a discount at Dayton. It basicly offers a nice Windows
interface/wrapper for the NEC code.

I am very pleased and impressed. Please understand that my experience
with antenna programs is limited. Yet in one evening I was able to
enter and study three antennas easily. I compared results on KY1H's
phased inverted vees at 150 feet on 80 meters, and got essentially
identical results to those he published in the YCCC Scuttlebutt.

As the program is in its early release stages, I expected some bugs.
I found a few minor ones, but nothing that represents a serious
problem or a glaring error. I called the folks at Paragon Technology,
and they were very responsive to my comments and suggestions, noting
that they would be following up with more polished releases soon.

I have no affiliation with Paragon Tech, but I would highly
recommend their product.
