I presume the intent of the rule prohibiting multiple single-band 
logs from the same station are the following:

1. It allows the station to analyze the logs and scores post-contest, 
then determine which entry class yields the best chance of winning a 
category. For example, if LPL loses to LR as a M/M, maybe LPL would 
win single band 40, single band 80, etc. That doesn't seem right.

2. It allows a  multi-multi to potentially win several categories, 
taking away from others' chances. It's bad enough the M/Ms take the 
band edges on every band. You want them to win every category too?

I suppose you could operate "regular" high power, and then use 
several calls. Why the extra high power? To compete with the 300 
watt Italians? :.)
