Unfortunately, there probably weren't any.
The way the Field Day rules are written, the power of the most-powerful rig
in an FD setup is the power of all the rigs. All QSOs get the same power
multiplier. IOW you don't get the QRP-battery multiplier unless every FD QSO is
made
running QRP-battery.
There's a 100 point natural power bonus (not a multiplier) for making at
least 5 QSOs with a rig powered by an alternative energy source (usually a
solar
panel). At K3TU we earned this bonus with a K2 and solar panel.
IMHO it would be a great thing if a multi-rig FD setup could have different
power levels on different band/modes.
