CQRLog IRC Channel

Hi I'd like to float the idea of starting an IRC Chat channel for CQRLOG discussions and help.
As many of us are Linux Mint users and HexChat now comes as standard in the Mint 17 build this may be a quick way to ask for help and share experences using CQRLog in real time via chat. HexChat is also available for MAC and Windows users.
More info on HexChat can be obtained from here: http://hexchat.github.io/
Any IRC Chat client can be used however, including Pidgin Internet Messenger
I have created an IRC Channel called #cqrlog on the following IRC Server:
irc.deltaxray.org
This IRC Server is owned and run by Hams and only has Ham channels on it (but it's in now way restriced to Ham subjects)
IF you have an IRC Chat client on your PC (and if you use Linux Mint 17, you do ;-) ) then conect to the irc.deltaxray.org network server and the #cqrlog channel.
 
I look forward to seeing you there.
 
Dave, G8FXM

Dave,

Dave,
Haven't use IRC for a long time but set up HexChat on Mint 17. The channel does not appear in the channel list so I used /join  - does it take time to make the channel list?
 
Charlie.
