The next SCARC meeting will be on Thursday November 6, 7:30pm at the 4H building on the Iowa State University Campus at 13th and Stange in Ames.
KN0R will make a presentation on
Antenna Modeling with 4nec2
4nec2 is a free windows-based program developed by Arie Voors for creating and viewing antenna geometries and displaying near and far field radiation patterns. It also can incorporate feedlines, coils, traps, etc., and calculates SWR, impedance, Smith Charts, and other useful information. See http://home.ict.nl/~arivoors/ for more details. A brief introduction to antenna modeling will be given and then several features of the 4nec2 program will be demonstrated.
