I know we're talking NFHS here, but FWIW that is currently still the rule in NCAA. If the calling team is ready in say 7 secs, then the table should sound the horn and team B has 15 to get ready to play on 2.

Also FWIW I've been taught at the college level - especially early- assume a 30, they will tell you otherwise. And the HS level just the opposite. Assume a 60 and they will tell you otherwise. And from experience seems to be the norm in my area.
