Re: NEC-LIST:Nittany Scientific Programs

Hi Steve,

When using NEC-Win Synth to generate a grid you should
get 16 wires. The segment lengths should be adjusted
so that all of the segment endpoints land on each other.

I can't tell from your email exactly what you are getting.
Can you please send me the file that was generated and
the parameters you entered?

The GNEC geometry checker (Necvu) and the NEC4 core follow the
standard convention. There is nothing special with respect
to connecting wires.
