You will hear lots of guys call cq dx, it's short for calling all stations.
Lots of guys chase DX when the band is all over the place like this, ssb can be a lot of fun.
Some ops will use q codes and spell out names/places phonetically when the band is rough.
The 101 is a good SSB radio, it's older but there are lots of them on the air, still doing what they were built to do 40+ years ago.
Have fun.

There are a lot of licensed operators on 27.385... The phonetics and lingo carry over. Just don't call CQ on AM . I made that mistake once....
