System design software - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Can anyone recommed a good (and inexpensive) program for doing RF system design work? I looked at an eval version of SysCalc, but it looks a little pricey for what you get. Anything else out there? Anyone have a used copy of SysCalc to sell for a couple hundred bucks?

Dear troy,

Have you tried the RFcafe-Calculator-Workbook?

If you need free system simulators you can try QUCs. You can also use appcad. Thanks.

Best Regards,

You would be amazed what you can do with Excel and VBA :-)

except for complex math (a+jb)*(x+jy)
For serious work with field calculations you need Mathcad or Fortran
