The proper 'communication' of the obstruction violation is the umpire pointing at the offense and calling: "That's obstruction!" when it happens. The ball is live (delayed dead, if you must) unless and until the umpire calls "Time."

I suspect that FED got rid of the left-turn signal after years of reading mail from umpires telling them that it was a ridiculous and wholly unnecessary mechanic.
