[Elecraft] ELECRAFT - Chat

Mon Apr 7 18:25:01 2003

An IRC chat room sounds like a terrific idea to me. The program called mIRC (http://www.mirc.com/) is free and there are numerous
free chat servers. All you have to do is fire up mIRC and join the Elecraft room.

This makes it much easier to exchange detailed information since the speed is much greater than CW and there is no QRM or QRN to
contend with.  Everyone in the world has a very high signal to noise ratio anytime of day.  It's possible to help with real-time
trouble shooting, either in the main chatroom or in a private room one-on-one.

For serious infomation exchange, IRC is a whole lot better than radio.  It's also fun to just have a general round table discussion.
Everyone can copy 100% and there are  fewer propogation (server) problems.
