No rules that I know of, Hans.
Mutli-transmitter stations often start with different serial
numbers. Typically the first station takes 001 to 999, and the second
one takes 1000-1999, etc.
With the advent of network savvy logging software this doesn't have
to be the case any more, but then you have to have a local network
set up between your different stations.

It does. I've gotten some "wows" from people when I've given them
1000 plus s/n's after a half hour into the contest.
