Oh! I get it now. No, you can't do this but I'm not sure why you'd want
to, other than to put more than one signal per band on the air at the same
time, which would be impractical - even on a semi or a huge coach everything
would be too close. Since everybody would run Unlimited Rover it makes more
sense to use just one call and have everyone's score count toward that one
entry. If you're not worried about the competition, then the rules don't
matter anyway. Do what you want, have fun, and submit checklogs (or not).
But you could always load up 2 or 3 vans or Suburbans or whatever and run 2
or 3 Unlimited Rovers as a caravan if you had that many ops and you wanted
2-3 signals per band on the air at once. 2 or 3 Unlimiteds running together
would make for an interesting race with the California ops that run
Unlimited. That would make for some good competition.
Reading your reply again, though, I think the real deal breaker for you is
no club competition for Unlimited Rovers. Yeah, that's a downer but I can
understand the reason for the rule. But if you were going to make a go of
this, you could always use the club call for one of the stations.
