OK, I've been issuing the serisl interface for #Meshtastic up until now. On Android, when I set up a second channel, it should show on the leftmost pane (chat), right?

I see it on the 4th pane from the left (channels), and in the radio config, but I can't figure out how to send a message on the secondary channel...

I am very interested in this. @jackspirko did an entire episode on this last week

According to the docs, it sounds like the channels should be on the chat pane...

I feel very confused because it's not like I haven't used Meshtastic before, or I haven't read the instructions. And I find it hard to believe this is broken for everyone...

Apparently if just took a long time to show up?

I checked with client.meshtastic.org and confirmed the radio was set up right, and the channel showed up there. Then I got distracted and when I came back to the Android app, my channel was there.

I guess maybe the webapp client may have sent something for the Android app to get a clue?

Whatever. I'm not going to risk breaking it now that it finally has shown up.
