For your task gEDA may be not the optimal choice. gEDA can be used for
simulation in conjunction with gnucap or ng-spice simulators, but that
is not very easy and more used for more complicated and frequency
depending task. Many people using gEDA intend to really build a device
and make a PCB board.

For your task qucs may be a better choice from the FOSS world. Some
people use LT-Spice, which is not open source, but can be used free. It
it for windows OS, but should work with wine.
