Narrative:
I was self-announcing on the CTAF channel during approach and landing to runway at ZZZ; which is a non-towered airport. I exited the runway and taxied along taxiway alpha southeast bound.I was unfamiliar with the airport and attempted to contact the FBO on their frequency to determine their location. As I was on that radio I mistakenly transmitted my intent to cross runway xx on the wrong frequency (I just installed new garmin radio/intercom and pressed the wrong button) instead of the CTAF. And; my attention was diverted to finding the FBO at an unfamiliar airport (this was my first time at ZZZ and am not accustomed to the mix between powered airplanes and sailplane operations).apparently; a glider tow was in progress on runway xy; but I misheard their departure notification for leaving runway xy. They passed about 300 feet above me. In retrospect I should have stopped for several minutes after landing and carefully set up and confirmed my radios. And; I should have called the FBO ahead to determine their exact location. It would be nice if the digital representations of the airport identified fbos in my garmin safe taxi or foreflight charts displays.

Title: SR22 pilot reported a conflict with departing traffic during taxi at an unfamiliar non-towered airport.
Narrative: I was self-announcing on the CTAF channel during approach and landing to runway at ZZZ; which is a non-towered airport. I exited the runway and taxied along Taxiway Alpha SE bound.I was unfamiliar with the airport and attempted to contact the FBO on their frequency to determine their location. As I was on that radio I mistakenly transmitted my intent to cross Runway XX on the wrong frequency (I just installed new Garmin radio/intercom and pressed the wrong button) instead of the CTAF. And; my attention was diverted to finding the FBO at an unfamiliar airport (this was my first time at ZZZ and am not accustomed to the mix between powered airplanes and sailplane operations).Apparently; a glider tow was in progress on Runway XY; but I misheard their departure notification for leaving Runway XY.

It would be nice if the digital representations of the airport identified FBOs in my Garmin safe taxi or Foreflight charts displays.
