Unless there is something I missed of course.

Does the word, "signal", refer to sounding the horn?

I am meaning all times though, not just specific times.
The text you quoted, should say: "The scorer shall not signal after the free thrower or thrower has been handed the ball or the ball is at the disposal of such player or team or until the official has completed reporting a foul." The only time the horn/signal should sound in this situation is in case of a question or error, as long as there is sufficent evidence to do so.

I could find no other reference in the rulebook or casebook. I was also surprised that it is a negative reference, that is, "should not signal". I would have thought that the NFHS would have a procedure as to when to properly signal for a substitution. I'm sure that I have overlooked something in my haste to quickly come up with an answer.

Did either of you bother to read 3-3-1d?
"If entry is at any time other than between quarters, and a substitute who is
entitled and ready to enter reports to the scorer,
the scorer shall use a
sounding device or game horn, if, or as soon as, the ball is dead and the
clock is stopped."
