Abstract
High quality audio broadcasts at radio frequencies to mobile receivers at or near the earth's surface are provided by substantially simultaneous transmission of the same signal from two geosynchronous, spatially-separated satellites on the geosynchronous orbit which virtually eliminates multipath fading and foliage attenuation and thereby permits the use of a low-cost space segment.
