excelworks.info is a personal information and project download site maintained by Peter Ward in Australia. Its predecessor was related to AX2VCI amateur radio content. The site is not a commercial SaaS or e-commerce platform; instead, it openly shares the author’s years of accumulated work in antennas, electronics, Excel VBA, Arduino, IoT, educational analysis software, and the local history of Victorian goldfields.
The most valuable materials on the site are in the RF/ANT section, including Antenna Builders Toolbox, the XLNEC-2 antenna modeling workbook, antenna matching and measurement spreadsheets, and practical content related to nanoVNA and ESP8266 antenna pattern testing. The Arduino, IOT, CURRENT, and other sections provide more advanced project code and ideas, such as electric fence monitoring and X/Y testing. The GOLD section offers historical information, locations, photos, and PDF booklets about goldfields in eastern and northeastern Victoria, giving it value as a local history archive as well.
The site clearly states that the author’s original materials are shared for free, making it suitable for personal learning and for historical societies to collect and reference. No paid memberships, ad subscriptions, or commercial licensing prices were found. Download files are hosted on Dropbox, while the site itself is hosted by Crazy Domains.
The strengths are its highly focused and original content, especially the Excel/VBA tools for antenna modeling and the Australian goldfields history materials, which offer a level of depth rarely found on ordinary tutorial sites. The drawbacks are that the page design feels dated and the organization of materials is quite personal. Many electronics projects do not provide step-by-step tutorials, and the author also states that he does not have time to tutor people who do not understand the material, so the barrier to entry is relatively high for beginners.
It is suitable for amateur radio enthusiasts, antenna builders and testers, engineering practitioners familiar with Excel/VBA, advanced Arduino users, and researchers interested in Victorian local history such as East Gippsland and Crooked River. It is less suitable for users who only want a modern UI, commercial customer support, or beginner-friendly courses starting from zero.
The main site may be accessible, but key downloads rely on Dropbox, which is generally restricted in mainland China. Overall, it should therefore be regarded as “partially restricted.” To access all materials fully, a stable international network environment may be required.
