 Does meshtastic channel name capitalization matter ?

Is #longfast the same as #LongFast ?

#meshtastic  
 Could be case sensitive? 
 I don't think I have any other nodes around but just wondering. Maps seems to show there are a few within a few miles but haven't been able to see them yet.  
 Yes, it is case sensitive. 
 Good to know - Any idea which is best to use?

I've seen LongFast and longfast is different places. 
 LongFast is the default channel so you have more chances to get contact with people on that channel. 
 I think part of my problem is I'm using the web app so hopefully get some clarity when I get a proper phone device. 

Thanks for your help. 
 Try to use the web UI. Just you have to connect on a wifi and browser mestastastic.local
