Mmana-gal — Antenna Files

Search for *.maa files on GitHub or ask in the QRZ Modeling forum. Many users share files for specific bands like 160m or 6m.

NEC2 files ( .nec ) can be imported but not saved back to .maa without losing some data. Search for *

Because these files are so lightweight, they are the "standard currency" for hams sharing antenna designs online. Why Use Existing Antenna Files? Because these files are so lightweight, they are

The software primarily interacts with specific text-based and binary formats: (MMANA Antenna) : The native and most common file format. It is an ASCII text file

If you are using aluminum tubing of different diameters (common in Yagis), you can define a "taper" to accurately reflect how the element’s diameter changes from center to tip. 4. Running the Simulation (The Calculate Tab)
