The header of the code says: NUMERICAL ELECTROMAGNETICS CODE (NEC2) DEVELOPED AT LAWRENCE C LIVERMORE LAB., LIVERMORE, CA. (CONTACT G. BURKE AT 415-422-8414 C FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE NEC CODE. FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE VAX IMPLEM- C ENTATION, CONTACT J. BREAKALL AT 415-422-8196 OR E. DOMNING AT 415 C 422-5936) C FILE CREATED 4/11/80.

I interpret that as meaning that this stuff is PD, since, 1 - It's government contracted research. 2 - There's no copyright statement. I would be willing to send you the file for posting on UCSD, if you feel it is appropriate. I see no difference between this code and the MININEC code currently posted on SIMTEL as far as ownership is concerned. The only issue I see is that I don't believe the code will run "as-is", except perhaps on a VAX (which I don't have :-). Please let me know what you think, and if you want it, I'll send you the code.
