(Note: This format is tricky and prone to errors; using the GUI tables is safer, but knowing this helps you read antenna designs shared in text format).

Additionally, sites like and various DX clubs maintain repositories of proven antenna files that you can download and "virtually" test. Tips for Working with .maa Files

Alternatively, (a stripped-down web version) exists but lacks optimization.

This is the heart of the file. Each line defines a straight wire segment using 8 numbers: X1 Y1 Z1 X2 Y2 Z2 Radius (mm) Segments (Note: This format is tricky and prone to

– 4NEC2 (with XFDTD-style interface), EZNEC Pro (NEC-4 engine), and open-source tools like xnec2c and OpenNEC offered better accuracy, but none matched MMANA-GAL’s simplicity.

3 Element Yagi for 50 MHz, optimized for low SWR

MMANA-GAL antenna files are a time capsule of early 2000s ham radio simulation culture . They are still usable, still accurate enough for wire antennas, and still shared among enthusiasts who remember when a 3 MB download and a text file could model a 5-element Yagi better than pencil-and-paper formulas.

MMANA-GAL is one of the most popular freeware antenna modeling programs based on the Method of Moments. When you are looking for "full feature" antenna files, you are typically looking for a comprehensive library that goes beyond the basic dipole and Yagi examples included in the default installation.
