Too late. Already been done with the limited multi-category. But try this on 
for size:

This is not about restricting the number of bands you use. Just restricting 
the number of bands you _submit_ in your contest log.

Here's a hypothetical situation. There are times in NE when 6M is a bust. I 
can do better on 1296, but I never know until I work the contest what 
conditions will be like. So I run 6, 2, 222, 432 and 1296. When the contest is over, I 
choose the best 4 (or whatever) bands to submit.

More food for thought?
