Trimulcast

Trimulcast

A trimulcast is a cluster of three radio stations and/or translators that play the same feed. Normally this is done in order to have full coverage of a certain area. Some radio stations use this technique to provide rimshot coverage into a major market by broadcasting on the outskirts from three different locations.

Well known trimulcasts include:
*WGVX/WGVY/WGVZ in Minneapolis, Minnesota making up a soft AC/oldies station called Love 105
*WDEK/WKIE/WRZA in Chicago making up an adult hits format 9 FM during the day and Dance Hits format Dance Factory at night.
*The Highway Stations out of Barstow, California cover the Mojave Desert from Barstow to Laughlin, Nevada and Las Vegas with music, weather, traffic, and news.

Trimulcast also refers to the same program being broadcast on the TV, radio, and internet simultaneously.
