	. . . I will add a proviso in that the Source represented by EZNEC, and presumably by extension NEC, has no characteristic Zc; or rather I am not aware of its value. . . I'm not sure what Zc is, but NEC sources have a definite, well-defined internal impedance: Zero. EZNEC gives you the choice of voltage sources, which are the same as NEC sources, with an impedance of zero; and current sources, which have an impedance of about 10^15 ohms -- infinite, for practical purposes.

Hi Roy, You are too modest by half, you are sure. Such a source makes for the explicit source of Mismatch Uncertainty. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC  |
