Hi Gang:

 The player-piano chat room at our web site turned out to be unreliable.
Some people could not log on or once logged on would get "bumped'.

I registered the Channel with Starlink.org which is more reliable. I
chose Starlink because of their strict (and enforced) rules regarding
their "no sex rooms" policy. This makes for a clean and pleasant
environment to talk.

For all of you who have Supported the channel, making it possible to
register it, please accept my thanks.

To access the Channel, you will need a Internet chat client such as
mIRC or Pirch.  If you have been in the Pianotech room before, you
already have it.  You may download the software at

    http://www.starlink.org/software/

Once installed you can list the channels. if all else fails try typing
the following command in the text box.

    /join #player-piano

I am shooting for Sunday and Monday nights, at 8pm CST however I seem
to be in there just about every night getting things set up!

On Tuesday and Thursday nights please drop by and visit Rev John and the
gang at #pianotech.  I.E.

    /join #pianotech

Please note that in some chat clients there is another" Starlink" which
is the wrong one. If you see @Mars in the channels, (our friendly Bot)
you are on the right server.

trading, and roll arranging/music discussions.

See you there!
