Aviation Band Antenna question

In regards to Aviation Band communications, can anyone provide an example of multiple antennas, broadcasting or relaying the same signal, situated at different locations for area coverage?

TIA

The UK uses a multicarrier network where particular ATC transmissions use multiple transmitters on almost the same frequency to provide wide coverage. I believe the separation may be 7 kHz, but I maybe wrong.

Thanks for the reply.

I can see with the low, medium, high and very high freq's having overlap for the same traffic, especially with the international flights.

Thanks for the information.

Thanks Mig...that would help. The AIXM is having a fit over this, as all related structures must be grouped, so now, the issue is really and issue...

hopefully, this will support my recommendation at everything is stand alone..

ie...each waypoint will have all of the procedures that reference it, attached to it....
