Hi Robbie,
When calling for a local contact I would just use CT-4725 but when calling for international contacts use the full call sign including your division number 26-CT-4725. It's all fairly informal and you'll get the hang of it by listening to others.
73's Gary.

I was the same as you Rob. So I YouTube'd what to say when putting out a call. CQ CQ. It's all on YouTube mate. Just do a Google search. Good luck.
