Call CQ and Work an Exchange

You're parked on the national two-meter FM simplex calling frequency with nothing else scheduled. Nobody's holding the frequency, so it's open for a call. Work the exchange below at the pace given — the simulated clock keeps running whether or not you're the one talking, and it never stops for you to think.

Put out a call. Announce that you're calling anyone, then identify yourself clearly, spelling your call sign out so an unfamiliar combination of letters and a digit doesn't get garbled.
