AdaNEC

NEC (Numeric Electromagnetics Code) is a program written by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories which models structures which radiate RF energy. Its application to hams is obvious: antenna modeling; although it is not limited to such.

NEC2 exists in FORTRAN source form; it is my intent to write a program which uses NEC2 as a child process to provide a more user-friendly environment for the design and modeling of antennas.

I have received a copy of NEC2D which compiles cleanly under G77, the Gnu Fortran 77 front-end to GCC, the all-encompassing open-source compiler. By the end of October '99, I should have it into proper port form for FreeBSD. Once done and committed into the tree, a FreeBSD usr can simply 'cd /usr/ports/math/nec ; make install' and it'll be there.
