While in the military, I was in “Courts & Boards”. AWOL was always just Absent Without Leave.

First time I see this called otherwise than pregap track.
It seems more objectively correct name, but maybe rarer as well.
We should include pregap track in its definition.

Sometimes there is a TLA too far. I am like @Llama_lover and know that DSL is a technical item as part of my broadband. We don’t really need to translate everyone’s shorthand. Sometimes we should just kick the writer of the note and get them to be clearer for the reader. We have many many trades and interests all mixing here and TLA’s are going to overlap a lot. They can’t all be defined.

Not found (yet) in our forum posts.
