Safetycom should not be used further than 10 NM from the intended strip.
ZA's point about using airfield location at the beginning and the end of the transmission a la US Unicom though not mentioned in the above CAA document is a point well made: from overhead our strip (same strip as ZA) I have heard a/c making approach broadcasts without mentioning any airfield name: I only excluded our airstrip in the Tx when runway orientation mentioned didn't compute.
