Hi alhammer, yes +h is a real mode it means % which is halfop.
It works the same way you'd give someone @ operator status.
/mode #Channel +h <Nick>
and also /chanserv hop #Channel add <Nick> (on some services)
But I don't believe you can make yourself an owner because if we could all do that there'll be alot of channel take-overs.
Hope this helps.
