Thanks Don for the further explanation.

I have no idea how many folks suffered the consequences in trying to get dimensions and actually build a Moxon antenna using such tools...only to fail in frustration and not knowing why.

In my work with modeling I tried to suggest something was wrong with some of the calculators, and that based purely on my Eznec models.

That said, Eznec and possibly Modeling in general have received such bad reviews on these radio forums...that the idea of modeling and its results are pretty much a vain effort. Over time numerous operators that could model, to some degree or another and some just starting out using such tools, have just come and gone. I regret that.

Again, your description of these issues, and you're informing the members of some problems with the code in some Moxon generators...is pretty clear and makes very plausible sense for me. We need more members that have skills.

Thanks.
