Systems and methods are provided for providing content to a receiver. A first broadcaster is configured to broadcast a first content on a channel over an associated first region of signal coverage. A second broadcaster is configured to broadcast a second content, different from the first content, on the channel over an associated second region of signal coverage that overlaps the first region of signal coverage to form a region of overlap. A gateway device is configured to schedule transmission times for the first and second broadcasters, such that a receiver tuned to the channel receives the first and second content as a time divisional multiplexed signal.
