🎉 Exciting News! With the release of AN-SOF PRO 10, we’re thrilled to announce AN-SOF DX version 10 – our special edition designed exclusively for ham radio enthusiasts! 🚀

AN-SOF DX offers a 500/50/5 combo to elevate your antenna simulation experience:

✅ Up to 500 segments + connections
✅ Up to 50 frequencies in a linear sweep
✅ 5° resolution for 3D radiation patterns

These features are tailored to meet the diverse antenna design needs of radio hams.

We’ve created AN-SOF DX in response to countless requests from the amateur radio community. We understand that many of you are hobbyists or engaged in non-profit activities, so we’ve made it accessible and affordable for individuals, not businesses.

We are excited to announce the release of AN-SOF 10 🚀, the latest version of our powerful antenna simulation software 📡. Designed with the needs of RF engineers, ham radio enthusiasts, and academic professionals in mind, AN-SOF 10 brings a host of new features and enhancements to streamline your antenna design and analysis workflows.

The image below shows my preliminary results experimenting with DeepSeek-V3 to assist in designing a 3-element Yagi-Uda array for the 10 m band. I requested an output file in NEC format to import into AN-SOF Antenna Simulator. The image displays three iterations where I requested modifications to improve the Front-To-Back (F/B) ratio.

Key Takeaways So Far:

✅ It’s important to start with general requests about the antenna design before refining them with more specific requirements.

✅ In this example, I began with broad prompts:
📏 What are the recommended element lengths and spacings for a Yagi-Uda antenna?
📏 Could you recommend the element lengths and spacings for a 3-element Yagi-Uda antenna for the 10 m band?

✅ Finally, I prompted the AI to generate a complete NEC model 📝.

I’ll be sharing more details soon!
