[RTTY] Telnet/Packet and the RTTY RU/Revision the Rules

[Andrei Nevis]

I think, that everything was already discussed and many guys want the Rules to be revised, edited, etc. 
  They are far from to be perfect. Well, nothing is perfect.
  If they need to be updated - they must be updated, here is nothing wrong with it.
  I just repeat my two questions - I do not have the answers in current version of the Rules.
  1. Single Operator rule does not prohibit to use more than one transmitting Signal at any given time. It does not allow to use more than one TX in Multy Group, but nothing mentioned in Single Op. paragraphs.
  2. There is 3.2.1 paragraph Power for Multy Group.
  Where is the same paragraph for the Single Operators? (Say 3.1.1 for Singles)
   
  Kinda inconsistent stuff, something missing here, something missing there.
  I am a new guy in this game, just saw this incorrectnesses and wanted somebody to fix it.
  Thank you
  73's Andrei EW1AR-NC2N
