Their geographic coverage can range from local to national or even international. The operation of these stations is subject to regulatory oversight by government bodies that allocate frequencies and enforce broadcasting standards. Maintenance and technological upgrades are ongoing processes to ensure the quality and reliability of the transmitted signals.
