While we're on this.... any idea why the 9 character limit?

The standard says "The text display must display the Component label in
either its short form (8 characters long) or its long form
(16 characters long). It is not permissible for the receiver to truncate
the label to any other length"

For the full document.

So it seems that for whatever reason, either Arquiva or the BBC have
decided to omit the "E". Or it's a typo that's not been caught yet.

BBC Radio London transmits its name as BBC LONDON on DAB and misses out
the second "O" on FM.

And another case of 9 characters!
