Again, non unicode encodings are not supported by mIRC. If it's a problem for you, your solution is to:
- join another channel,
- have the users move over to a unicode version of the channel,
- use mIRC 6.35
At least one of those suggestions is doable.
Out of curiosity, how many of the users in the channel you're trying to join are on clients that are NOT mIRC? My guess would be that the majority are on pre-7.x versions of the client.
