WHAT DOES RELAY STATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Broadcast relay station

A broadcast relay station, relay transmitter, broadcast translator, rebroadcaster or repeater is a broadcast transmitter which repeats or transponds the signal of another radio station or television station, usually to an area not covered by the signal of the originating station. They may serve, for example, to expand the broadcast range of a television or radio station beyond the primary signal's coverage area, or to improve service in a part of the main coverage area which receives a poor signal due to geographic constraints. These transmitters may be used to create a single-frequency network. They may also be used by a radio station on either AM or FM to establish a presence on the other band. An example is WECK; an AM station which recently purchased an existing FM translator. It states the FM frequency and then its AM frequency when identifying the station. Less commonly, a rebroadcaster may be owned by a community group rather than the owner of the primary station.
