5.2.1 Channel Identifier
The channel identifier is a function of the time. The current time
(as defined under UNIX by the number of seconds elapsed since
00:00:00 GMT, January 1, 1970) is converted in a string of five (5)
characters using the following base:
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890" (each character has a decimal
value starting from 0 for 'A' to 35 for '0').
The channel identifier therefore has a periodicity of 36^5 seconds
(about 700 days).
