NAME
input - Yagi-Uda project antenna defining program SYNOPSIS
input [ - h ] DESCRIPTION
The program input is one of a number of executable programs that forms part of a set of programs, collectively known as the Yagi-Uda project , which were designed for analysis and optimisation of Yagi-Uda antennas. input is an interactive program, that asks the user for information about a Yagi design, such as position of elements, spacing between elements, frequency span of interest and a filename to save the data to. input then writes this information into an ASCII file, which can be read by yagi or optimise The file is ASCII and it's for- mat is easily understood by inspection (there are comments printed in it), so it can if necessary be edited manually. After running input and specifying a filename (for example 144e10) you should then type yagi 144e10 and then output 144e10 and optionally optimise 144e10 OPTIONS
-h Print a help message. FILES
filename ASCII data file in which design is put. PLATFORMS
Both DOS and Unix versions have been built. The DOS version as distributed requires a 386 PC with a 387 maths coprocessor. AUTHORS

Bugs tend actually to be fixed if they can be isolated, so it is in your interest to report them in such a way that they can be easily reproduced. If a mistake is made during inputting of data (such as entering an incorrect length), it is not possible to go back and correct this. You should make a note of the error, and edit the ASCII text file with a text editor (vi, DOS edit etc). Version 1.16 24th October 2000 INPUT(1)
