<<<<The other thing interesting in the addenda is just when has the signalling

I agree that there is no reason to change the name but ABS is what it whould be
called in the US and I'm guessing that they are just following US practice.
BTW, in the US, in ABS territory, you need a track warrant as permission to be
in the ABS territory!
