Notice Description

LinSig3 Software Support Agreement renewal includes telephone hotline/email advice on the use of the software. Basic design advice for schemes being designed using the software. (A full consultancy service is available at additional cost if more detailed advice is required.) This is invaluable back up & insurance, especially if NH is an infrequent user, it can be worth the cost of Renewal just for one enquiry.
