Was a bad behaviour generating a lapsus ?
Actually, there's no MM category in IARU international contest and only
HQ stations can have one station per band. Multi entrants have to play
as MS,or at least they should......

Concerning allegations.
Is a fact and not an allegation that the call HG1S (ex HG73), year after
year, is symultaneously heard (and logged) all over Europe (and outside)
with more stations on different bands, and often (IARU), also in
different
modes.
A typical WPX late evening includes: one HG1S on 160m, another 80m,
another is on 40 and all of them exchanging groups of consistently
higher or
lower numbers meanwhile another HG1S is running (without stops) on 20m.
Much worse happens in IARU where also CW and SSB gives another
opportunity of simultaneous presence of multiple HG1S.
Or someone is making fun
o compromise them, or HG1S is
not only violating rules but deliberately making fun of people
listening.
No one can exactly proof why or who is behind and playing this game,
but no one can have the skin on the face to deny what's heard.
Contest organizers who have most of the logs on their hands can probably
check what really happened. Of course not blindly checking an eventually
"repaired" log (where mode or bands have been grouped, times rubberized
etc.), but comparing if time of logged QSOs roughly matches on both
logs.
What's sounds a bit sospicious is that HG1S doesn't complain against any
call abuse and enters MS both the IARU and WPX. Not any more the
WWDX where crosschecks are well known to be quite extensive and
accurate.
