If I were Don, I would quietly report the call sign to the contest  
sponsors.  The log checker (didn't Eddie use to jokingly call them log  
chequers? :-) may be able to legitimately nit pick his log to death  
even if they couldn't get him for the one signal at a time rule  
infraction.

If this person has such a big ego that he feels compelled to cheat,  
not winning one of top spots in a contest will probably be just as  
devastating as being turned into a check log.  For such a short  
sprint, losing just a couple of QSOs could matter.

Remember that Al Capone was not put away for murder, but instead for  
tax evasion.
