If you are teaming up with someone before launching, just agree on a channel - other than 16 or 9.
I have read somewhere about some radios broadcasting out a GPS position, but if you are in trouble - description of your location works... "1 mile north of pt. LJ." or something like that, referencing a land mark - that's what I would do.
