I don't know about "proper," but I just do CQ several times, DE, then call
a few times, then QTH, then some bells. I do this sequence 5 times (5
lines) so people tuning by hear something and have time to tune it in. I
put one bell at the end of the first line, 2 at the second, etc. so I can
easily tell where I am in the sequence. Finally, I think the QTH is
helpful for those with a directional antenna. They have a clue as to the
direction to aim.

Also, people might try sending KE3BK KE3BK DE call call QSA?

Bill will send an automated signal report.

Listening on 14.086 LSB right now!
