Human Factors; Procedure
We were on a 6 mile final and cleared for a visual approach 1L by approach control. We did not receive a frequency change from approach control for the tower; therefore we did not receive and respond to a clearance to land. On landing; we rolled out to an intersection for 1L and 25L; where it is 'typically' a left turn off for taxi. We did not hear the instructions to turn left onto 25L and held our position on runway 1L until we were cleared to taxi onto runway 25L. When the First Officer switched the radio frequency and inquired about the taxi instructions; we were back on the initial MKE approach frequency. This caused confusion and an approximant 30 second delay clearing runway 1L; causing a previously cleared airline flight behind us to be instructed to go-around. Once establishing communication with ground control; we were instructed to taxi to our base via 25L and the ramp. We taxied to the ramp. We were instructed by ground control to call the tower via a telephone line. I placed the call 6 minutes later and talked to the tower operator. His concern was why we stopped on the runway. I explained that we had not heard the tower instructions and held our position until we had been cleared to turn off 1L and onto Runway 25L. This was due to a failure to switch to the tower frequency for a landing; therefore we missed the instructions to exit the active runway and cause a go-around for the landing traffic.
Visual approach at MKE Runway 1L. Approach control did not tell us or we didn't hear the instructions to contact tower. We landed on approach control frequency. Normally we exit Runway 1L on to Runway 7R after hearing tower instruct us to do so. However we were still on approach frequency so we didn't hear any instructions. We then stopped to confirm the turn onto 7R. Thinking we were on the tower frequency there was some confusion as we were actually transmitting to approach. The extra delay on the runway caused the following aircraft to go around. After receiving taxi instructions to the ramp we turned onto the wrong taxiway due to our confusion in trying to figure out what went wrong.
Corporate jet flight crew report landing without clearance and remaining on the runway until Ground Control can be contacted for taxi instructions. During this time an Air Carrier goes around.
