IIRC, NEC stands for numerical electromagnetic code and it uses the method
of moments to analyze antennas. Earlier versions are free, but the latest
has a hefty license fee. There are some DOS and windows programs
available (elnec, eznec, mininec, etc.) which have a shell that makes it
easy to use.

I used to have a DOS fortran compiler around somewhere. I wonder if it
would run in dosemu? I haven't tried g77 (it's been ten years or more
since I have done any fortran programming).
