[CQ-Contest] 10 minute rule for multiplier station in MS

[N7DF]

I have always wondered what is the purpose of the 10 minute rule as it applies to the multiplier station in MS 

 It seems that the purpose of the multiplier station is to maximize the mults and it is counterproductive to force it to sit on a band that may have only one multiplier available for 9 and a half minutes when there are multipliers to be worked on other bands

especially with the packet clusters spotting for multipliers it seems like this rule is out of date and should be changed to permit unrestricted roaming of the multiplier station as long as there is only one multiplier station in use at a time

Remember E=IxR is not just a good idea   IT IS THE LAW
