Dear Georg,

I found one a couple of years back. It was maintained on a Microwave Design
company's web site in New England area. (I think)
I have an out of date Errata (194kB, 12/6/97, Wadell Errata.doc, Winword
format)
that I downloaded a while back when we were chasing equations.
After what seemed like a never ending search we opted for a more
universal approach using Boundary Element Method field solving.

For those that are interested the errata can be downloaded from:

http://www.guidedwave.com/errata.doc

Hope this helps.

Best regards
