Your description reminds me of "The Terrornauts", a 1967 movie based on the novel "The Wailing Asteroid", by Murray Leinster. The story involves a group of characters who receive a radio signal from space. After they respond to the call, an alien ship appears and transports them to a deserted space station, where they are required as crew to repel an invasion by a different, hostile alien race.
