Next pitch sails over the catcher's head and Skip comes out of the dugout again but before reaching the foul line, looks at me and says "oh, wait, that's right. I can't go out until the next batter can I." Turns around and goes back in the dugout without waiting for an answer.

I know that is true for OBR, but what about FED? I couldn't find anything stating that you couldn't go out multiple times during the same batter as long as you complied with the substitution rules and number of charged conferences.

So FED allows multiple trips during the same at bat?

You can use all 3 of the free conferences during the same at-bat if you want to. I would have reminded the coach of that when he made the incorrect statement.
