Re: NEC on Linux

Hi Hamish. Has anyone found a way to compile NEC or one of the variants like MININEC or whatever on Linux? g77 spits the dummy badly (thousands of errors); f2c does too. Actually, f90 on a Solaris box doesn't like it either. I don't know any Fortran so I don't know where to start

Hi Hamish. I know Fortran, but not NEC so... 1. What is it? 2. Where is it? I don't remember what the acronym stands for but it's basically an electromagnetics analysis program, good for evaluating antenna designs. OK, that answers the first question. Anybody care to answer the
