Licensing of the SMA Simple Spectrum Analyser
Hi,
I made up my mind about licensing the SMA Spectrum Analyser.
- The software is free for anyone requesting an activation code. I will not make it totally free, without a licensing mechanism, because I do not want to do free support for the Chinese manufacturers/sellers of the SMA device. They ship their devices with a shareware (WinNWT) without prior consent of the author!
- I will give out activation codes valid up to three months. The expiry dates will be:
- March, 31st
- June, 30th
- September, 30st
- December, 31st
- You will always get the next expiry date.
- You can ask for new codes as many time as you want.
- You can request more than one activation code.
- Depending upon my free time / personal life, issuing the activation codes can take minutes to days - no warranty what so ever.
- The activation codes work with any future release.
- I will accept donations of 10 Euro / 10 US$ / 10£. In return I will issue a permanent activation code (31.12.2099). I am not sure how to do that with PayPal, so this is not working at the time being. I will not provide any extra support, bug fixing, etc. to people who donated: the donation is only for the permanent activation.
Regards,
Vitor
How do I request the activation code please? Thanks
ReplyDeleteJust download the software and start it. You will be asked to select a MAC address (normally there are more than one, for each network device) and a SYSTEM CODE is produced. Copy and paste it to an e-mail to me (address is shown within the software) and I will send you back the ACTIVATION CODE. Regards, Vitor
ReplyDeleteThe system code was generated but nowhere is there an email address for you.
