I agree with Juha.

There are really two rule changes here:

1) Must have a transmit interlock when two (or more) radios on same band.

Completely unenforceable.

2) No alternating CQ's on the same band.

But I can still have two run stations on the same band, as long as it doesn't 
sound like alternating CQ's and I have a transmit interlock ?
