There have been at least three different ABC broadcasters.  Right now
there is one in America and another in Australia.  Back in the mid-30s,
when the current American ABC was NBC Blue, there was another American
Broadcasting Company which evolved from the shortlived American
Broadcasting System which had evolved from the American Broadcasting
System.  Amalgamated was founded by Ed Wynn and the flagship station was
WBNX, the next ABS was flagshipped on WMCA, while the ABC was
flagshipped on WNEW.  And CBS was flagshipped on WABC in those days.
Confused?  Some people still believe that Amalgamated was on WNEW and
that the EW in those calls stand for Ed Wynn.  But WNEW was not formed
until the year after Amalgamated was already dead, and all the research
and the actual recordings of the inaugural broadcast prove it was WBNX.
