Correct under NCAA rules. No dropped tosses, 8 seconds to serve.

Bob, when I am the R2 and a server tosses and drops or tosses and catches, I verbalize to my SK to record an RS in the service box. That way if there is a second re-serve during the term of service, we've got it covered.

In your situation, without being 100% certain, you had no choice other than to allow the re-serve.

Is there a whistle when the server drops the toss? If not, how do we signal a reserve?

Yes, you whistle and give the replay signal. Then you will whistle and beckon for serve again.
