Hello netlanders.
Is there anyone out there who can help me understand how
a FM broadcast translator works?  Specifically, I need to 
know how the signal from the station being rebroadcast
is extracted from the receiver side of the translator,
what form it is in upon extraction, and how it is applied
to the transmitter side.  It would seem illogical to decode
the stereo subcarrier, deemphasis it, only to turn around
and encode the stereo signals, and add preemphasis again.
Anybody got an idea here, or a good book to refer to on this
subject?
Regards,
