How would *you* have handled it?

What I do when this happens is to stay on the freq. an wait until
some airliner overhead talks to the controller (be it Center or
Approach). Snip

Nowadays make a call on 121.5. There's a million aircraft listening
there these days. Some aircraft will hear you and relay the message.

Thanks for the suggestion. Is that considered a legitimate use of
121.5? I have been under the impression that 121.5 was reserved for
emergencies only.
