There is far too little traffic on this reflector. What some members see as
an expansion of its scope may be a good thing. When someone like Tony asks
for advice, the appropriate response is to discuss modeling as a route to
the answer, not complain about the propriety of the question. (Glad to see
some of that happen...)
I find it completely consistent for this reflector to include the use of
modeling programs in the process of actually building, testing and operating
real antennas -- to compare them with their virtual counterparts and help
understand how they work.
Does my opinion count for anything? That's up to each of you ... I have been
an Antennaware subscriber since its inception, a beta tester of EZNEC and an
alpha tester of EZW. And I've designed a few antennas.
