Seems to me that as long as all the signal origination (transmitter)  
and signal capture (receiver) points reside in a single 500m circle,  
there's really no issue here. The results would be no different than  
if someone had a physical transmitter and receiver(s) at the location.

The key behavior we're looking to prevent is the use of multiple  
receiving and transmitting sites. That seems to be adequately  
addressed by the current rules.
