You’d submit two logs, one as a fixed station, or one as rover.  When sending your callsign, you’d have to append the 
/R when rover and they’d log you as such.  They will not get penalized as dupes as they worked and logged you as 2 distinct 
callsigns."

   You will likely encounter some confusion over the air because anyone
   that has worked you with one callsign configuration may assume the
   same callsign for subsequent radio contacts. Most logging programs
   will automatically pop up the previous callsign worked. Not a
   showstopper but something to be aware of.
