NEC-LIST:Re: Accuracy

Of course, all antenna anaylsis program use a series of approximations, so
the result are approximate. The standard test is run several simulations,
starting with a small number of segments, and increasing towards the maximum
allowed by the
program; if the results appear to converge towards a constant value, the
results are dependable.

I have compared NEC, Mininec 1-3 and the ohio state program (see separate
posting for sources) on a few difficult antennas, such a loops. NEC and the
ohio state program agree well, with mininec showing an 'offset". I have not
tried the later versions of mininec.
