[Elecraft] #elecraft IRC channel on worldirc

[W2SR - Robert I. Block]

The #elecraft channel on Worldirc.org is ready for anyone to post their
message, but there hasn't been much activity.

To use it, you need to access a worldirc.org server either through their
webpage http://www.worldirc.org/webchat.php or by downloading a software
package such as mIRC  (see list on
http://www.worldirc.org/software.php).

Any of the servers in worldirc are linked, but they don't all seem to be
up.   Some of the server names and aliases that work are:
irc.radiochat.org, irc.worldirc.org, and Klagenfurt.AT.EU.WorldIRC.Org.
The complete list is on http://www.worldirc.org/servers.php.  Note that
every IRC network is disjoint, so the same channel name can exist in
DALNET, UNDERNET, EFNET, etc.; but they're not the same.

Use your call as your 'nick' and login, then /join #elecraft.  You can
also join #cqdx and #frc (not recommended for YCCC - hi).

Although many IRC channels are vulgar, this one's not.   Please follow
the same rules for chatting, that you would use when posting to this
list.  There is usually a control operator for the channel monitoring
things, and inappropriate language is likely to result in a kick and
ban.

John N3DRK, Pieter G0BSK, and myself hope you will find the channel
useful in finding other elecraft owners for QSO-ing. And BTW, thank you
John and Pieter for your efforts.

73,
