Iranian calls signs will be very rare.

will be one of 2 formats:

EPA-Z (26 possible) EQA-Z (26 possible)

9B–9D (3 possible)

Their list of possible call signs is 55 total.

Not sure if they reassign calls.

It is said there are 32 Amateur station in Iran.

Now, in some countries they only have club stations. Individuals don't own the station, but use the club station. Often at a university.

In the US you can build your own if you have the skills and want to. It is rarely done now, but I'm old enough to remember that. Have done it. Have built many from scratch projects.

If you are interested, it is a great hobby. Many of the operators were military trained (old days), today it is easy for a non technical person to get a license.

Learning Morse Code is not a technical skill. It is a conditioning and perceptual skill. Easy for some, next to impossible for others. It takes time and practice to get good at it.

The International Telecommunication Union developed standard. For a very long time in order to have HF (high frequency) privileges you were required to know Morse Code.

I hold an Amateur Extra license and a commercial radio license.
