Subject: C3E model needed
Author: Pete Smith <n4zr@contesting.com>
Date: 13-Apr-2000 20:08:05
I am trying to model a 3-high C-3E stack with guys, low-band arrays, etc.
In other words, looking for interactions among all the conductors in my
one-tower station.

My problem is this -- I have a full model of the C-3, derived from the
dimensions in my manual plus info on the added 10M reflector that Natan
provided. The problem is that the number of segments/pulses involved in
the big model (3-high antennas, plus guys and arrays) exceeds EZNEC's
capacity.

My question is this -- does anyone have a simplified 8-wire C-3E model like
the one that Force 12 has been providing for the C-3 (7 wires, no taper)?
Alternatively, can I put the real-world C-3E 10M reflector into the
simplified model and expect reasonable modeling fidelity?

I guess what I'd really like is for Tom or Natan to tell me, "Just add an
element of X inches length, Y diameter, Z inches behind the 15m driven
element of the simplified model." But failing that, can anyone else help?
