Bob, Here is a free version of SPICE http://www.willingham2.freeserve.co.uk/winspice.html. Works fine and doesn't have any node limitations (within reason). There is no schematic capture with this, but hey it FREE! There is a help file that comes with it, but to get you started quick.... 1. Click on File Open and go find your *.cir 2. Type run at the command line 3. Type plot v(x) to plot your node; where x is the node number If you are interested in having a schematic capture tool I can recommend Intusoft ICAP/4 windows, however there are many others out there for you to choose from.

Hi - Is there a version of SPICE that does a good job with coupled transmission lines and lossy transmission lines, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg? Is there a version you use that's inexpensive, and that you're happy with?
