There's a small airport in the vicinity that is not a towered airport,

There's an AWOS that states "Grissom Municipal airport".
However most of the people when flying around call "Bedford traffic" and
I do too since this is what I had been told by my CFI.
If the AWOS doesn't work ( it has happened at that airport ), how would
I figure out that I should call "Bedford traffic" instead of "Grissom
traffic". There's usually noone at the Unicom on the ground to answer calls.

Look at the beginning of the AFD, specifically the Directory Legend.
You'll see:

CITY NAME
Airport Name (Alternate Name)

It would seem that using the Airport Name (or alternate) from the AFD
is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. No one could fault you for that.
