The situation today, with separate LP categories for some sort of "LP in 
general" vs. LP with "TB & Wires", means in reality "Monobanders" vs. 
"Tribanders", which is a rather pointless distinction. 

Hence my proposal "LP Beam(s)" vs. "LP No Beam(s)". This would 
automatically take care of the kind of "tricky stuff" issues you raised.

Hello

I think in the TS category, there should be a very clear definition of 
what is allowed.

For example, my opinion is
Single triband beam, that means no stacks but a FB33, KT34XA, OB16-3 etc.
Single element, is according to me a single vertical or a dipole

I don't have any problem with such a category. It still doesn't make it 
an leveled playing field, but it sure levels it out a bit with those 
guys not needing to compete against the monster stations.

One could however discuss, why single monobanders should not be allowed 
if a OB16-3 is allowed, since its pretty much a bunch of monobanders on 
the same boom.

Its tricky stuff...
