Please let me know, I appreciate the input so far!
If you are doing OBR, there is nothing wrong with someone other than the umpires using an indicator. If you are doing FED, it's stepping over the line by the rules. Would I call it in a FED game - no I wouldn't.

Now, under either rule, long as the coach doesn't refer to the indicator that he is carrying, we are okay. Some will argue, using the indicator is the same as using a scorebook. If a coach comes to me with his scorebook I wil talk with him. If he comes to me with an indicator, I don't know him from a hole in the wall.
