Ok, one more question...When connecting to a D-Star repeater for the
purpose of contacting anyone who happens to be listiening. Do I need a
/ in front of the repeater call? After connecting I would then enter
CQCQCQ on my end? Or am I thinking of connecting to a reflector?
Thanks

It depends:
If you are using native D-STAR callsign routing in which case you leave
/CALL B (Module) in for every transmission.
If you are using the D-PLUS application, you do it just like a reflector
CALL CL (Module/Link) then switch to CQCQCQ.
The best thing to do is try some scenarios on the D-STAR calculator:

will become much clearer at that point.
