Before I go out on a limb I need some expert opinion.

I witnessed, more than once, a big name multi-op station transmitting on
2 frequencies at the same time. Is this permitted? 

They would put the voice machine in repeat mode on the run frequency
while calling DX multipliers on another. Since they could not copy the DX
if the run TX was on, it was all synchronized so that both transmitted at
the same time. The run frequency was unattended....calls went unanswered.
