Many thanks to those who responded to my question regarding an
Admittance to Impedance converter.
I have a further question. Since most of the measurements we make on
antennas and transmission line require the answer in term of impedance
why are there so many commercial instruments calibrated in units of
Admittance, particularly at VHF and UHF. I suspect that it is because it
is easier to make accurate variable bridge standards if they use a
parallel arrangement; is this true

The best program (as far as I am concerned) is called Z-Y Converter,
which was sent to me by Rik Strobbe.
It came direct because it gave the reflector indigestion although it
is only 160KB.
I was given a General Radio 1602-B Admittance Meter as a pre Christmas
present, which is calibrated in millimhos, which I guess is the same
as millisiemens.
