Quick question about how this would work.

I haven't flown in the US so am curious. Apologies if this is a dumb question.

The ICAO E definition says VFR is provided traffic where possible. I assume that means if you want traffic as a VFR, you can ask for it (and if ATC can assist will be given it?). Does the US E implementation have this ability?

Also for aircraft doing a VFR entry and then wanting an IFR "pickup", how do they get the frequency?

Obviously their system works - is it as mentioned earlier, do you simply call on the nearest outlet you find on the chart? (and because most of the airspace is E there you can safely assume the nearest outlet will be the one looking after E in that area?).
