[RTTY] RTTY Sprint: rework the same station vs. move to another band

[Doug McDuff]

Now finally QRX for the weekend from trial.

As I read the rules as now written, your interpretation is correct.  In 
other words, the band is irrelevant.  There must be 3 Q's in between, 
period.  Second, once you have worked a station there is no mult to move as 
the mult is only counted once, not once per band.  And if I have read the 
rules correctly, this seems to be the case regardless of the mode.
