I believe the instruction to not make any call went away when the ATR part of the OBS rule was dropped. Now, any time the runner is OBS that call should be made.

Irish, for my sanity's sake, how long ago was "about to receive" in the ASA OBS rule? I don't have any of the old-old books anymore, but I don't ever remember that in there. My memory tells me ATR was an NCAA rule difference.
I prefer the USA & NCAA collision rules to HS: dead ball INT out, and ejection if flagrant. NHFS is less flexible - if it's a collision out, the player is also ejected. Some locals still give me a hard time here because I had to toss a 12 year old and a 14 year old in back-to-back weekends playing PGF under Fed rules.
