[Elecraft] IRC Elecraft channel

Guy ....

This works for Windows .... Haven't tried it on a *nix box yet.

Option 1:
Go to http://www.mirc.com/get.html
Select mIRC 6.03 in Pennsylvania or the closest state to you.
Install what you downloaded.

Open up MIRC
Click on the X on the About mIRC screen
Next screen should be mIRC Option
IRC network should be    All
Below that you want IRC.WorldIRC.ORG
Click on Connect to IRC Server
Takes a while, but when you see the mIRC Channels Folder
come up, type     #Elecraft    in the Enter name of IRC channel to join
and click on Join    and you should be there.

Option 2:
Install mIRC
Go to www.worldirc.org/servers.php
Click on Europe (EU.WorldIRC.Org)
It will bring up mIRC
tell it to proceed to EU.WorldIRC.Org  if it asks
Takes a while, but when you see the mIRC Channels Folder
come up, type     #Elecraft    in the Enter name of IRC channel to join
and click on Join    and you should be there.

I just tried both methods and it got me there.
