    EZNEC is Killing me!

    Not sure if it should be here or in antennas so here it shall be posted.

    Diving into the world of EZNEC. And I SUCK! I cant build a model of a simple 43' vertical antenna and radial system. Well....I can get the vertical no problem. And can enter the off set Z height. (43' vert 3 feet off ground) but for the life of me, I cant build the radial system. I read it has to be at least the diameter of the wire off the ground for ground mounted radials and it doesn't understand buried radials...I think. Im just confused. And there is no way in hell I would ever ask this on zed...no freakin way!

    Any help you can provide or an ez file with an example (just one radial will suffice so I can see how its done) would be very...VERY appreciated!
    Yeah...I'm a furry...Deal with it!

    Ren . There a group close to here me that are contstantly talking about modeling programs. Guess what There signals SUCK. The folks with Big dog sigs do there own. These modeling programs might help, There not gospel. Read Orr's wire antenna books. Low band dx'ing. And w8ji tom raunch. Now thats where you can glean some good practical tried and true working knowledge. Just my opinion.. And FEED da Bunnehs. My Bunnehs here are starving..

    Damned forum software won't let me upload a file with .EZ extension, otherwise I'd oblige.

    Maybe another way...

    Tried that. No go.

    Ok, I renamed the file with a .ZIP extension. It's not really a ZIP file, so just rename it back with a .EZ extension.

    Just fookin' stupid.... :roll:
