In the 'Main' window, only the data for the first frequency step is
displayed.
You should be able to use the freq-sweep charts (F5 key) to view SWR, Z-in,
F/B and Gain info for the other frequencies.

Yes, at least if I understand your question correctly. Select the 'pattern'
window (F4 key) and use the arrow keys to 'walk' throught the generated
horizontal/azimuth or vertical/elevation patterns.

When using version 5.3 you will first have to specify what kind of pattern
you would like to see. However when you specified 'Full' (3D), you wont
be able to 'walk' through the patterns. Only when 'Hor' of 'Ver' was
selected you will be able to do so.
If your interest is in the F/B and F/R ratio's for the freq-sweep you will
have
to select the full pattern. (see 4nec2.hlp <F1> key or 4nec2.rtf for more
info)

Success,
Arie.
