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 de-
     sign, 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 format 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
     Dr.  David  Kirkby G8WRB (david.kirkby@onetel.net).  with help with in con-
     verting to DOS/PC from Dr. Joe Mack NA3T (mack@fcrfv2.ncifcrf.gov)

     Bugs should be reported to
     david.kirkby@onetel.net.
     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  incor-
     rect  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).
