Hi Brian
there is a similar mechanism with Ham Radio, you call CQ with your callsign and that lets others know you are available for a QSO (conversation), on repeaters you announce your callsign and “listening through” repeater callsign (e.g. gb3da, the danbury repeater Essexham use)
most bands and modes have the concept of a calling channel or centre of activity, do a search for rsgb bandplan 2m etc
are you currently studying for your foundation license or passed ?
