The intent of the rule was to reduce the congestion on the FM satellites by getting stations OFF them after making their one QSO, thereby giving more stations the opportunity to make a QSO. So the way I interpret it, and the way I've operated since the rule was adopted (and I was one of those who hounded the ARRL to adopt it), is "ONE and you're DONE."
Not two, or twenty, and you only get to SCORE one... ONE.
