Uh, no you didn't.

You simply keyed up and announced you were listening.

How about trying to use the more preferred protocol of...

Callsign phonetically. grid square, op mode

Like...

Kilo-Six-Lima-Charlie-Sierra, Delta Mike 13, handheld

Use of the word, "listening," may be taken literally - you are on the  
air, LISTENING.

I am assuming you were in the correct ops mode for the bird during  
this pass...were you?
