It is important to recognize that the Numerical Electromagnetics Code (NEC) is no magic tool—it does some things very well but it cannot do other things. In spite of this, it is a valuable tool that makes a significant contribution to easing the design and adjustment of medium-frequency (MF) broadcast directional antennas.
