This distributed multi thing (HQ stations) in IARU seems to be pretty
popular. Does this have potential to be a fun category in other contests?
I can imagine combining forces with a couple of other SECC club
member/stations for this would-be category.
Sounds like fun to me.

Bill, it is fun.  Having just done the W1AW/6 thing with six station 
locations in N. CA, I recommend it as something for contest sponsors to 
think about.  The IARU is a good one, as most summer events need some 
spicing up.  I would like to see first, the other committee categories 
(R1,2,3 Secretaries, and AC) be allowed to operate MMM.  Then, other clubs 
like SECC, TCG, SMC, etc do it.  We know that some stations do the next 
logical thing, MMMM (multi-op, multi-tx, multiple locations, multiple 
transmitters per band-mode).  That sounds like even more fun, to me.

NCCC actually had two MMM operations planned, but had to scale down the 
W6ROD operation to M/S, due to a ruling from IARU.  Their feeling was that 
they wanted to encourage the individual secretaries to be active in the 
contest.  How likely is that?  But, Rod Stafford was all in favor of the 
NCCC plan, and actually came to the W6ROD operation at Stanford U., W6YX.

More debate?

I've got another suggestion --

The "Team-Multi" competition:

--- allow teams formed from up to six single operator, single band (1
entrant per band only), unassisted entrants (regardless of callsign)
drawn from anywhere in the world, to be combined into a single
score...
