Calling CQ on a clear frequency for your class of license is probably the best source of action. The band isn't that big to tune around for contacts, and, if tuning around for contacts and/or calling CQ seems to cause you dismay, maybe you need to get on "channel radio" and leave the real radio operating to amateurs who have a tuning knob on their receivers and a VFO for their transmitters.
