PSA: That old school hand signal chart from the 90s is still dead on

Found a faded copy taped inside a cab on a job in Kansas City last month. Skeptical at first, thought it was just nostalgia. But the line about the 'extend boom and lower load' signal being two separate moves? Saved us from a near miss when a new spotter got his signals crossed. Anyone still using those paper charts or is it all radio now?

Our crew still laminates a copy for every new guy's hard hat.

I always thought that was dumb but @jesseb20's post changed my mind lol

Wait, they still make new guys carry that chart? @jesseb20's crew is smart. That stuff is basic but it clearly works.
