Mike,
There was a mobile bonus station in 2004. W3UU was the bonus callsign and there were multiple stations using that call - each one in a different county - and one mobile, namely KQ3F and I. The multiple stations were a little confusing for people but they eventually got the hang of it.
Joe and I covered 18 counties and logged somewhere between 1100 and 1200 QSOs. Mid-afternoon on Sunday in CLI was particularly productive - people were scrambling for needed counties and CLI was needed for very many of them. And we were also the bonus station. Needless to say we spent a lot of time there - 204 QSOs worth.
