Here is ansof's version of the center fed 1/2 wave dipole in Free Space model showing 2.138 dbi gain vs. Eznec with a similar antenna model showing 2.14 dbi gain.

Here is the Eznec model in Free Space showing 2.14 dbi gain.

Henry, I figure if this dipole model produces the same gain with both Ansof and Eznec...then there is very likely little difference with more complex models.
If I can figure out how to report the matching...
