I can't think of anything else that would matter! LOL.

In Southwest Colorado a few years back there were two translators on the
same frequency both rebroadcasting KKOB-FM from Albuquerque.  Have since
been displaced.

As you traveled east on Highway 160 listening to the Cortez, Colorado
translator, you'd go up a hill at the town of Breen.  At the top of that
you'd hear a little flutter (not unusual in the mountains anyway)..then the
Durango, Colorado translator would take over.

It was pretty sweet.  Modulation/level on both translators were the same
as they translated at the IF stage (Tepco units)....
