I have used “CQ 77 …..” a few times for the same thing and it is not very sticky also. In fact, even saved free text messages revert to the standard after any attempt to answer a call.
In addition, it appears double-clicking a received message with <CQ_XXX>, which is what other non-standard CQ messages I’ve seen decode as (probably my 77 also, will not initiate a return/answer sequence on double click - you have to start one manually (type callsign, generate messages, select TX1, enable tx). So, I only send a couple of the CQ 77 messages and followed by a standard CQ, or CQ DX.
