I find this titile a bit awkward. The word relay is usually reserved for the passive repeaters. I think transmitter (SHF RL input) or transposer ( UHF/VHF input) may replace the word relay.

This kind of (transposer) station has traditionally been known by the public and in the UK broadcasters' publicity material as a relay station. Transposer is a technical term used by transmitter engineers and such specialised jargon is inappropriate for a WP article title. IMHO it ain't broke and doesn't need fixing.
